Sigma Agents Public Beta Launches with Agentic AI and GPT 5.4 Support
Sigma Agents have entered public beta. The update introduces full agentic AI capabilities into dashboards and applications with native MCP tool support and warehouse agent integrations. Progress bars and rings add a visualization option in beta, while dynamic text improves email exports for scheduled reports.
Agents provide AI capabilities based on predefined context from workbook data elements. Instructions and data sources supply the context. Actions, warehouse agents, warehouse search services, and MCP tools allow agents to take action or enrich insights.
Agents can be scheduled to run automatically or accessed through chat elements using natural language. They support tasks such as analyzing sales pipeline funnels, explaining financial variances between actual and plan data, forecasting sales promotions, and summarizing incident status. MCP tools can be configured for third party services including Microsoft SharePoint and Jira.
Warehouse agents from Snowflake Cortex Agents or Databricks Genie Spaces can be used from Sigma Assistant or as tools within Sigma agents. A new API endpoint is available for updating deployment policies. An AI usage dashboard enables review of token consumption, data sources, tool calls, models, user feedback, and conversation details.
The administration users table now includes a license type column. Support for OpenAI GPT 5.4 replaces GPT 5.1 when available through OpenAI or Azure OpenAI accounts. Progress bars and progress rings display values as percentages or proportions of targets.
Snowflake role selection for OAuth connections is generally available, with roles selectable from the data catalog or user profile. MCP tools, warehouse agents, and API connectors can be swapped when tagging workbook versions. Dynamic text is now supported in the subject and message fields of ad hoc and scheduled email exports.
