β‘Quickstart Guide
Welcome! This guide will help you get started with Euno and see value in your first session.
What You'll Accomplish
By the end of this guide, you will:
β Connect your first data source to Euno
β Explore your data model and understand lineage
β Ask your first question using the AI Assistant
Time Required: 30 minutes Recommended First Integration: dbt or DWH (you'll see results fastest)
Before You Begin
Make sure you have:
Step 1: Connect Your First Source (10 minutes)
Choose Your Starting Point
We recommend starting with one of these:
Option A: dbt (Best if you use dbt)
Shows your transformations and logic
Provides immediate value with model relationships
Quick to set up with GitHub or dbt Cloud
Option B: DWH (Best if you don't use dbt)
Maps your entire warehouse structure
Provides usage and cost data
Shows which tables are actually being queried
Option C: BI Tool (Best for understanding BI usage)
Shows what dashboards exist
Reveals which data sources are most used
Identifies optimization opportunities
Quick Setup
Navigate to Sources
Click "Sources" in the left sidebar
Click "Add New Source"
Select Your Integration
Choose the platform you want to connect
Click "Configure"
Enter Credentials
Follow the platform-specific instructions
Test the connection
Click "Save"
Run Your First Sync
Click "Run Now" to start discovering resources
This may take 5-15 minutes depending on your data stack size
You can continue to Step 2 while it runs
π‘ Pro Tip: While your first source is syncing, read through the Core Concepts page to understand how Euno maps your data.
Step 2: Explore Your Data Model (10 minutes)
Once your first source has finished syncing, it's time to explore.
View Your Resources
Open the Data Model Screen
Click "Data Model" in the sidebar
You'll see a list of all discovered resources
Understand What You're Seeing
Resources: Every table, column, dashboard, model, etc.
Properties: Metadata like owner, description, last updated
Usage Data: How often each resource is queried or viewed
Explore a Resource
Click on any resource to see its detail information
Notice these key sections:
Description & Properties: What is this resource?
Code/Logic: How is it defined? (for transformations)
Lineage: What does it depend on?
Usage: How much is it being used?
Downstream Impact: What depends on it?
Try the Graph View
Click "View Lineage" from any resource detail page
Explore the graph:
Blue arrows show data flowing upstream β downstream
Click nodes to expand and see more connections
Use the controls to filter by resource type
Exercise: Find a Heavily Used Resource
Go to Data Model screen
Sort by usage (impressions or queries)
Click on the top resource
View its lineage to understand its data flow
Step 3: Ask the AI Assistant (5 minutes)
Let's use natural language to explore your metadata.
Open the AI Assistant
Click "AI Assistant" in the sidebar
You'll see a chat interface
Try These Starter Queries
Copy and paste these questions (or create your own):
Understanding Your Data:
Finding Specific Resources:
Exploring Relationships:
Identifying Issues:
Understanding the Results
The AI Assistant converts your natural language to EQL queries
Results are shown in a table format
You can click any resource to see its detail page
You can ask follow-up questions to dig deeper
Step 4: Identify Your First Opportunity (5 minutes)
Now let's find something actionable.
Find Ungoverned Data
Ask the AI Assistant:
If you see results:
These are tables that exist in your warehouse but aren't managed by your transformation tool
They might be:
Legacy tables that can be deprecated
Ad-hoc tables that should be formalized
External tables that need documentation
Find Unused Resources
Ask the AI Assistant:
If you see results:
These are candidates for deprecation
Cleaning them up can reduce maintenance burden
Archive them or discuss with owners
Next Steps
Congratulations! You've completed the Euno quickstart. Here's what to do next:
Connect More Sources
Add your other data tools to get a complete picture
Set Up Your First Workflow
Get notified when new ungoverned resources appear
Add Metadata Tags
Start classifying your resources
Perform an Impact Analysis
Understand what would be affected by a change
Set Up Data Model Sync (if you use dbt + Looker)
Keep your BI tool in sync with your models
Explore Advanced EQL Queries
Build custom queries for your specific needs
Enable MCP Integration
Use Euno directly in Claude, Cursor, or VSCode
Common Questions
Q: How often does Euno sync my data sources? A: By default, sources sync daily. You can configure this in the source settings or trigger manual syncs anytime.
Q: Does Euno affect my data warehouse performance? A: No. Euno only reads metadata and query logs. It doesn't query your actual data.
Q: Can I control what resources are discovered? A: Yes. Each source integration has filters to include/exclude specific schemas, databases, or projects.
Q: How do I invite my team? A: Go to Account Management β Team Members β Invite. You can set roles and permissions for each user.
Q: What if I make a mistake? A: Most actions are reversible. You can disconnect sources, delete resources, or reset configurations. However, be careful with bulk deletions.
