Artifacts

Artifacts are rich, interactive outputs that Zoë creates for you. They can be a wide variety of types — interactive apps, written documents, data spreadsheets, slide presentations, and more. Use the Artifacts page to organize, revisit, and share everything Zoë has built across your conversations.

What makes up an artifact

Each artifact bundles together four components:

• Output file — The document you see and share (an HTML dashboard, chart, spreadsheet, PDF, or image).

• Source code — The code Zoë used to generate it.

• Data files — The CSVs and SQL results used as inputs.

• Memory — An auto-generated summary of the artifact's purpose, context, and change history.

Viewing your artifacts

Click Artifacts in the left-hand navigation sidebar to see all of your saved artifacts. Use the tabs at the top to switch between:

• My Artifacts — Artifacts you've created.

• Shared With Me — Artifacts others in your organization have shared with you.

Each artifact displays a thumbnail preview, its name, and when it was last edited. Filter by type using the chips below the tabs — All Artifacts, Apps, Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations, or Other — to quickly narrow down what you're looking for. Use the search bar in the upper right to find a specific artifact by name.

Artifacts in chat

Zoë creates artifacts automatically whenever a visual output would be helpful — or when you ask her to build something. Artifacts appear inline in the chat, and you can click on one to expand it in the side drawer.

If an artifact is something you'd like to keep and come back to, click Save to my artifacts. The artifact will then appear in your Artifacts gallery alongside everything else you've saved.

Creating a new artifact

You can also create artifacts directly from the Artifacts page. Click the + Create New Artifact button in the upper right corner. A dropdown lets you choose the type of artifact to create:

• App — An interactive application.

• Document — A rich text document.

• Spreadsheet — A data spreadsheet.

• Presentation — A slide presentation.

• Other — Any other artifact type.

Selecting a type opens a new chat with Zoë where you can describe what you'd like to create.

Opening and editing an artifact

Click any artifact on the Artifacts page to open it in a side drawer. From the drawer you can preview the artifact, share it with others in your organization, or schedule it for automatic refresh.

To edit an artifact, click Edit in a new chat from the three-dot menu in the drawer header. This opens a new chat with the artifact attached, so you can tell Zoë what you'd like to change. Zoë will update the artifact and a new version will appear in the update history.

Update history

Every artifact uses immutable, append-only versioning — nothing is overwritten or deleted. New versions are created when you edit the artifact and save your changes, or when a scheduled refresh runs.

Click the Updated timestamp on an artifact to open its update history. The history panel displays every version of the artifact, letting you time-travel through past states. Each version includes an edit message describing what changed.

From the three-dot menu on any version, you can:

• View Artifact Memory — See the context Zoë used when creating that version.

• Download — Download the artifact as it existed at that point in time.

• Edit from this version — Start a new edit based on an older version of the artifact.

Auto refresh

Keep an artifact's data up to date by enabling auto refresh. When turned on, Zoë automatically re-pulls the data and rebuilds the artifact on a schedule — so your dashboard, presentation, or writeup is always ready with live data.

Click the Auto-Refresh Off button in the artifact drawer header to open the auto refresh settings. Toggle Enable auto refresh, then configure:

• Frequency — How often to refresh (daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom cron expression).

• Time — What time of day to run the refresh, shown in your local timezone.

• Instructions — Optional directions for Zoë to follow during each refresh. For example: "Highlight any outliers in the data and write short blurbs about their trends."

Click Save to apply the schedule.

To run a refresh immediately without waiting for the next scheduled time, click Refresh now.

Every refresh appears in the artifact's update history, so you can see how the artifact has changed over time.

Delivery

Artifacts can be delivered on a recurring schedule to email or Slack. A single artifact can have multiple delivery schedules — for example, email to leadership on Mondays and Slack to #data-team daily.

Email delivery

• Inline thumbnail preview of the artifact.

• Optional file attachment.

• "View Online" button if public sharing is enabled.

Slack delivery

• Message with the artifact name and description.

• Optional file upload to the channel.

Sharing and permissions

Click the Share button in the artifact drawer to share an artifact with others in your organization. From the Share tab, select a user group and assign a permission level. Click + Add Group to grant access to additional groups.

Access levels

Role	Capabilities
Owner	Full control — edit, delete, share, configure refresh and delivery
Editor	Edit name and description, create new versions
Viewer	Read-only access

You can share with workspace groups (including "All Users") or with individual users. Workspace admins always have access.

Publishing to the web

To make an artifact publicly accessible, click the Share button and open the Publish tab. Click Publish to generate a unique public URL and an embed script that anyone can use to access the artifact — no Zenlytic account required.

Once published, the artifact displays a Public chip on the Artifacts page. A public link and an iframe embed script are provided so you can share the artifact or embed it on another site.

Editing or refreshing an artifact does not automatically update the published version. When you're ready for the latest version to go live, click Publish latest version. To remove public access entirely, click Unpublish.

Artifact memory

Every artifact has an artifact memory — a detailed summary of the artifact's purpose, your instructions, version history, and key context. Zoë references this memory whenever you work with the artifact in a chat, so she understands what the artifact is, what you like and dislike about it, and how it has evolved over time.

To view an artifact's memory, click the three-dot menu in the artifact drawer header and select View Artifact Memory.

Supported output types

Artifacts support a range of output formats, all generated on top of your governed data:

• HTML apps and dashboards

• Charts and visualizations

• Spreadsheets (.xlsx)

• Presentations (.pptx)

• PDFs

• Images

Limitations

• Refresh timeout is 1 hour per run.

• Public share links are pinned to a specific version — they do not auto-update when new versions are created.
