3. **Visual Answers:** Results appear as interactive visuals where the linked dataset supports the query
4. **Follow-up Exploration:** Use filters, tooltips, drill actions, and related report pages to investigate further

### Example Questions

## Best Practices

<Tip>
  Start with broad questions, then use the generated visual's filters,
  tooltips, drill options, and related report pages to narrow the analysis.
</Tip>

<Warning>
  Q\&A results depend on the fields, measures, and phrasing available in the
  underlying report dataset. Always validate important decisions against the
  report source context and your domain expertise.
</Warning>

## Tips for Better Results

* **Be Specific:** Include time frames, entity names, or specific metrics
* **Use Report Terms:** Match terminology from the report, data source, or glossary
* **Explore Variations:** Try different phrasings if a visual does not appear
* **Validate Context:** Check filters, source details, and data period before relying on an answer
