Description

Descriptions let you explain what a table, collection, column, or field means in your actual product. DataLoam includes that context in the Database Index so AI answers can use your language and your domain rules.

What to describe

• What a table or collection represents.
• When a field should be used.
• Business meaning that is not obvious from the name.
• Important constraints, edge cases, or naming conventions.

Example

Instead of only indexing a column named status, add a description such as:

Current fulfillment state of the order. Use "processing" for paid orders that
have not shipped yet.

That gives DataLoam more useful context when it generates queries or explains results.
