The tasks people use Nimbus for most. Each one includes a prompt you can copy and adapt to your own studio.

Ask questions about your studio

What this is for. Getting an answer out of AirStudio without building a report or knowing where the screen is.

What's outstanding on the Riverside job?
How many sessions did we shoot for Lincoln High last season, and what did they pay?

What you get back. An answer from live records, with any record it mentions rendered as a link that opens straight to it. Ask for a total and you get the true total, not a count of what fitted on screen. When a number reads better as a picture, Nimbus draws a chart with a one line takeaway beside it.

Tips that change the result

When it won't work. If the answer needs more than about a hundred records, Nimbus summarises and offers a file rather than listing them all. Filtering on a status or type uses the exact name from AirStudio, so an empty result usually means the name doesn't match rather than that there's no data.

Build a report or export

What this is for. Getting a file you can keep, send, or open in Excel.

Create a spreadsheet of all School Portraits jobs scheduled between
August 15 and November 1. Include the organization, job name,
account manager, start time, location and any job notes.

What you get back. Three formats, chosen by how you ask:

Large exports run in the background and arrive as a second message, up to 100,000 rows.
