Create Options Using AI

Overview

For Single Select and Multi Select fields, NocoAI can suggest relevant options. It uses your field name and table context. This reduces manual work and gives meaningful, consistent values.

Steps to Create Options Using AI

1. In your table, click the + icon in the top-right corner of the field header.
2. Select 'Single Select' or 'Multi Select'.
3. Type a clear field name that tells the type of options that you need.
4. In the field configuration modal, click ✨ Auto Suggest. NocoAI analyzes your field name and table context, and generates a list of relevant options.
5. Review the suggested options. Add, remove or edit the values as necessary.
6. Click Save Field. NocoDB adds the field and its options to your table.

Tips for Better AI Suggestions

• Use a descriptive field name Example: Use "Application Status" or "Task Priority", not "Type".

• Set table context When your table name and existing fields are more specific, the suggestions are better. Example: In a table with the name “Tasks”, a field with the name “Priority” will probably get these suggestions: Low, Medium, High.

• Apply business terms Use the terms of your industry in your field name. They guide the AI. Example: For a field with the name “Candidate Stage”, suggestions can include: Applied, Screened, Interviewed, Hired.
