Plugins and Automation
Plugins and Automation extend Data Studio and ETL with standardizer, enricher, algorithm and AI plugin types. Admins control which plugins are active and which run during Auto ETL.
What this feature delivers
Plugin manager workflows expose plugin listing and toggles for active_plugins and auto_etl_plugins. Data Studio and ETL steps can use this configuration to automate repeatable enrichment and transformation work.
Plugin types
Standardizer, enricher, algorithm and AI plugins support different transformation roles.
Auto ETL control
Active status and Auto ETL execution can be managed independently.
Data Studio integration
Available plugins can be used as transformation steps in preparation flows.
Use case
These steps show the need this feature solves for a real team and how it moves analysis closer to action.
Enable plugin
Admin toggles active or Auto ETL behavior.
Attach to transformation
User selects plugin-backed step in data preparation.
Automate refresh
ETL refresh applies the plugin in the defined flow.
Governed and traceable flow
Plugin automation is governed through active state, Auto ETL state and column dependency checks.
Which teams is this feature for?
Business users get faster answers, analysts keep quality and control, and admins manage data and access rules.
Does it work with other LivChart features?
Yes. The feature pages explain how preparation, AI, dashboards, reporting and sharing work together rather than as isolated modules.
