Glass spreadsheet becoming charts and a report Work Mode can turn information from files, public sources and connected apps into a finished result. A good request makes the result and its boundaries explicit. ## Give Aura the whole job Identify the app account, document, folder, URL or attached file. Include a date range when it matters. Say what to summarize, compare, calculate, extract or change. Include the fields and exclusions you care about. Ask for a Word document, PDF, Excel spreadsheet, CSV, native app document or a reply in chat. Name the destination folder and intended audience. Say “read only,” “draft only — do not send,” or exactly which live changes you want. Tools can change real accounts. > Read the attached sales spreadsheet. Calculate monthly revenue and the five largest customers, create an Excel report with a summary sheet, and save it in the Finance folder in my Google Drive. Do not email or share it. ## Documents, spreadsheets and code execution | Result | What to request | | - | - | | Editable written document | Word / .docx with the sections and formatting you need | | Fixed-layout document | PDF with the intended audience and page layout | | Workbook | Excel / .xlsx, including sheet names, calculations and charts | | Portable data | CSV with explicit column names and filters | | Cloud document | Name the connected provider and native format, such as Google Docs | | Analysis in chat | A table, summary, calculations and source links | For larger analysis, calculations, bulk transformations or complex file creation, Aura can use a code-execution workbench. This is a task working environment, not an additional connection to your accounts. Ask for the real output file and check its contents rather than treating code or a filename as a completed deliverable. Glass documents gathered in an output tray ## Attach once or reuse across a project Use [chat attachments](/chat/files) for a task-specific source. Use a [Project knowledge base](/chat/projects) for material that should guide several conversations. Knowledge Base preserves original file formats; producing a different output format does not replace your original upload. ## Follow progress and check completion Read the tool steps in the conversation. A task may need several app actions before the requested result exists. Open the returned attachment or app link and check: * The content is present, not an empty document or an unexecuted draft. * The calculations, date range and source match your request. * The correct account and destination folder were used. * Any send, share or edit actually happened only where you asked for it. A partial result is not the same as a finished multi-step task. If a connection or provider fails, check the account for completed actions before requesting another send or edit. Stopping a conversation does not undo a change already accepted by an external app. ## Follow-up, history and recurring work Continue in the same conversation when refining a result: name the file or app record you want changed. Work Mode conversations appear in **Work Mode chats**; reopen the appropriate thread instead of mixing unrelated tasks. Start a fresh conversation or separate Project for a different goal. For hands-free requests, use [voice with Iris](/chat/voice). For a schedule or event-driven job, use [Aura Agents](/build/agents) on Pro or Elite; the chat request alone is not a recurring schedule. Explicitly say “draft only — do not send or post.” Name the recipient only as draft context until you want the live action. Yes. Describe the complete chain and the destination. Steps that need earlier results run after them; independent steps may run together. No. Reading a public URL is different from logging in, clicking or filling a form. Enable Browser Tool only for interactive website work. Name the app account and folder in your request. If you only need a download, ask for an attachment in chat.
