List Tables can leverage the benefits
00:00:04
of Copilot as an assistant by
00:00:06
using simple prompts for sorting,
00:00:09
filtering, or generating pivot tables.
00:00:11
I'll start in the Copilot conversation pane
00:00:13
by using a suggested prompt to sort employee
00:00:16
ID by average salary in ascending order.
00:00:19
Simple, quick, and efficient.
00:00:20
I can also make a slightly
00:00:23
different manual request,
00:00:24
such as filtering the data of a column
00:00:27
by specifying a simple criterion.
00:00:29
Here I display the employees from Paris.
00:00:33
I want to apply a cumulative
00:00:34
filtering criterion based on the
00:00:36
status column showing only employees.
00:00:38
This is functional for my simple
00:00:40
needs as we are in preview.
00:00:42
In my active filter,
00:00:43
I now ask Copilot to sort in descending
00:00:46
order based on the age column.
00:00:48
To return to my unfiltered table,
00:00:50
I simply express the need
00:00:52
to display everything.
00:00:53
If I wish to analyze my data more deeply,
00:00:56
I can generate pivot tables.
00:00:57
I specify that I want a pivot table.
00:01:00
Copilot then offers me an example.
00:01:03
Noting that my request is general and that
00:01:05
it would be wise to be a bit more specific.
00:01:07
Let's specify by generating an analysis
00:01:09
table that shows the payroll by gender,
00:01:11
by contract type,
00:01:12
and for each city.
00:01:13
Once the proposal is displayed,
00:01:15
all I have to do is insert it.
00:01:17
The modifications I might want in the
00:01:19
pivot table are not yet managed by
00:01:21
Copilot and will have to be done manually.
00:01:29
For clarity, let's pro ceed with
00:01:31
a second example by requesting the
00:01:32
count of employees by contract type,
00:01:35
adding the average salary.
00:01:39
If the request is simple and clearly written,
00:01:42
the result is also straightforward,
00:01:43
thanks to Microsoft Copilot.
