To create datasets for the playground, you need to set up columns that match your prompt’s variables correctly. There are two methods for preparing datasets for the playground.

​
Manual Setup

Start with an empty dataset and create columns manually:

1

Create an empty dataset

Click the ‘add’ button (+) on the project you want to create a dataset in. Once created, this dataset is available to all resources in the project.

2

Create and rename columns

  • Click “Add column” to create a new column. Double-click the column name to rename it. Your dataset must have at least the columns exactly matching the variable names in your prompt to run evaluations.
  • Column names must match your prompt variables precisely. If your prompt uses {{customer_name}}, create a column named “customer_name”.
3

Create rows

Create rows for each of the test cases you want to run evaluations on.

4

Linked dataset to playground

Navigate to the Variable Editor and click on ‘Link dataset’ and choose your newly created dataset. If you don’t see the dataset, double-check that the column names match exactly as variables in your prompt.

5

Edit anywhere

Once linked, you can edit the dataset from either the Variable Editor or the Dataset page.

​
Automated Setup

Create a pre-configured dataset from the playground:

1

Create and link a new dataset

Click “Create and link new dataset” in the variable editor.

2

Create and rename columns

A new dataset is created with matching column names as per the variables in your playground.

3

Create rows

Create rows for each of the test cases you want to run evaluations on.

4

Edit anywhere

You can edit the dataset from either the variable editor or the dataset page.
