Find Sigma dashboards and ask natural-language questions about Sigma data in Glean
Search for Sigma workbooks, pages, and elements through the indexed connector — then add Glean Assistant to let users ask natural-language questions about Sigma data. Always scoped to each user's Sigma permissions.
At a glance
Glean offers two ways to integrate with Sigma. Each serves a different purpose, and together they give your organization both searchable Sigma content and natural-language data access in one place.
| Search integration | Assistant | |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Index Sigma workbooks, pages, and elements into Glean search | Let users ask natural-language questions about Sigma data |
| Data model | Crawled and indexed | Live access at request time |
| Authentication | API client credentials (machine-to-machine) | Per-user impersonation via token exchange |
| Setup owner | Sigma admin and Glean admin | Glean admin (reuses connector credentials) |
| End-user experience | Search and open indexed Sigma results | Ask natural-language questions and get answers from Sigma data in Glean Assistant |
Which one should you start with?
Start with the search integration to make Sigma content broadly discoverable in Glean. Then add Sigma in Assistant to let users ask natural-language questions about Sigma data.
The search integration handles discovery and navigation. Assistant handles natural-language data questions. We recommend enabling both for the best Sigma experience in Glean.
Sigma in Assistant requires the Sigma connector to be set up first.
