What NocoAI can do

NocoAI acts with your permissions. Each action below shows the minimum project role that it needs. NocoAI does not offer actions that your role does not allow, or actions for a feature that your plan does not include.

Actions with the note Asks first wait until you click Approve. Then they run.

Help

NocoAI answers questions about NocoDB. It uses this documentation to find the answers. For billing, account problems or bugs, NocoAI sends you to the NocoDB support team.

What NocoAI can't do yet

  • Invite people to a project or a workspace, or change someone's role
  • Set up sync
  • Create, rename or manage workspaces
  • Share a project, or create a project share link
  • Undo with a button. You can ask NocoAI to put back a change that it made, or to restore the change from the project trash.

NocoAI is not available on mobile. To use NocoAI, you need a role on the project. People who only have access to an interface cannot use NocoAI.

Availability
