# Using AI Analyst in Sheets

Arcwise AI analyst can be accessed via our Chrome Extension within Sheets. You can see example prompts and usage in the below sections.

{% content-ref url="/pages/pb5PTYOmLS1gD8eLKCHo" %}
[Getting Data Using AI](/using-arcwise-ai-analyst/getting-data-using-ai.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

{% content-ref url="/pages/VkQi1iZJZWmeTfXGaJ06" %}
[Creating a Visual](/using-arcwise-ai-analyst/creating-a-visual.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

{% content-ref url="/pages/6sRDxNrddGG2GcAjC6LY" %}
[Generating an Insight](/using-arcwise-ai-analyst/generating-an-insight.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

Arcwise AI analyst can work on any data connected to Arcwise. This includes:

* Data from your data warehouse (this does NOT need to be imported into the sheet)
* CSVs imported as Arcwise connected data tabs (preferred method of import)
* Data from your connected tools (EG: Salesforce, NetSuite)
* Reports and views from your connected tools imported as Arcwise connected data tabs

Arcwise AI analyst can also operate on data in your spreadsheet that is not an Arcwise connected data tab.

{% endcontent-ref %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Arcwise AI is most effective on Arcwise connected data. If you have data in your spreadsheet it is preferred to connect it as an Arcwise connected data tab. This can be done manually for all sources, including CSVs: [Connecting Data](/connecting-data/connecting-data.md).

If your data originated in a data warehouse the easiest way to get the data is with AI: [Getting Data Using AI](/using-arcwise-ai-analyst/getting-data-using-ai.md). This automatically creates an Arcwise connected data tab.
