can you add the Google Maps satellite background, was available last year, thanks

@Gregory A Moeller I checked and you can use Mapbox Satellite. I also just added the Esri Satellite. Google Maps Satellite needs an API key, so we skip for now.

Do you have a sample dataset for customer service data that could be loaded?

Hi When I click on 'Access the Oracle Analytics instance. ' I get insufficient Permissions error. I received my registration email on Feb 5. Could anyone please help?

@Dave Felton-Oracle You will need to find a dataset to use and upload it. Oracle is only providing few pre-loaded datasets.

@ChristineS-Oracle Please post your issue in the main Instance Logon Issues post.

Hi @Benjamin Arnulf-Oracle and Oracle Team,

I am experiencing an issue when creating Agents in Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) using custom datasets.

Problem Description:

Success Case: When I use the original sample datasets provided by Oracle, the Agent is created successfully and functions as expected.
Failure Case: When I use a custom dataset created within OAC, the Agent gets stuck at the following status:'Training for [Dataset Name] in progress. Click Check Status to see progress.'

The training process never completes, and the Agent remains unusable. I have verified that the dataset itself is accessible within OAC, but it seems the hand-off to the AI Service for indexing is failing or hanging.

Environment Details:

Platform: Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC)
Feature: Generative AI Agents

Questions:

Are there specific prerequisites for OAC Datasets to be 'AI-ready' (e.g., specific column data types, mandatory primary keys, or minimum row counts)?
Does the OAC Service Instance require specific IAM policies or permissions to successfully push custom datasets to the OCI Generative AI Service for vectorization?
How can I access more detailed logs beyond the 'Check Status' UI to diagnose why the training is hanging?

Thank you for your assistance.
