PRACTICAL COURSE / LESSON 7 OF 8

Use AI in the current editor

Provide real editor context, review a small change, and verify it through native preview and save.

What you will achieve

One scoped, reviewable change with application, undo, save, and reopen verified.

Before you begin

  • A current editor with supported and configured AI features.
  • A practice project; use production fields and account data only in an authorized environment.

01 · Check the supported scope

  1. Open AI from the target editor and inspect the supported actions and limits for that domain.
  2. SVG, dashboard, and workflow editing follow their current registries, models, and validators. Use native UI for unsupported actions.
Expected result

The project, selection, and version targeted by the change are clear.

02 · Describe one verifiable change

  1. For example: “Align the three selected metric cards along the left edge with equal spacing, preserving existing bindings.”
  2. Provide verified dataset fields when relevant; do not ask the assistant to invent channel numbers, table schemas, or device addresses.
Expected result

Scope, preservation requirements, and acceptance criteria are specific.

03 · Review before applying

  1. Inspect affected nodes, properties, and bindings, ensuring current unsaved work is not replaced by an old snapshot.
  2. Use the editor’s native review/apply feature when supported; do not overwrite the project with an entire generated JSON document.
  3. Inspect visuals/data and verify undo and redo after application.
Expected result

The change matches the request and preserves working data and interactions.

04 · Save and confirm the boundary

  1. Save and reopen through the current editor and verify real data and runtime access as in the earlier lessons.
  2. Native local tools cover capability discovery, conditional DynamicData SQL edits, and ReportStudio validation/conditional saves. Use the editors for other domains.
  3. Archived MCP services and CLIs are retired and are not offline-editing fallbacks.
Expected result

The result is an inspected, persisted edit rather than merely a generated description.

Troubleshooting

The sidebar reports an unsupported action

Use native editing or a plugin version that provides the required contract; do not bypass it with archived tools.

Validation passes but the screen looks wrong

Structural validation does not prove rendering. Inspect components, assets, channel state, and preview before a small correction.
