Hi,

I’m experimenting using Amazon Q in Quicksight.  
I’m programming the topic and the dataset to include only certain fields as active and specified a default date field and to ignore other date fields etc.  
I have updated the topic to do a refresh of the metadata.  
Still when I ask my questions Q randomly choses other date fields from the default ones or decides to ignore inverted metric rules for best worst.

Just a snaphot of the suggested available ranges that I have not included in my topic.

Is anyone experiencing a similar behavior? I making it very hard to calibrate the AI to provide correct answers on my dataset.

Kind regards,

Domenico

Hey @Dom

To clarify, you have multiple date fields in your dataset, but when you start the refinement process in your Q Topic you removing them from the available fields. Then, when you ask a question, the responses from the topic still include dates that you have removed during refinement. Does that sound accurate?

Or are you filtering the dates out using the filters in the Q Topic data refinement page?
