Generates SQL from natural language for common databases.
AI SKILLS · Databases & data
Write & review SQL with AI
Draft SQL with an assistant, then check it against the real schema and known results.
Why this skill matters
Generated SQL can run without errors and still return the wrong answer.
What to learn
- Give the assistant the schema and business definitions
- Explain each join and filter before trusting a query
- Compare results with a figure you already know
Before you begin
Basic SELECT, JOIN and GROUP BY
PUT IT INTO PRACTICE
Build a work sample
Ask an assistant for a monthly revenue query on a sample database. Then check row counts, null handling and duplicate joins against a hand-calculated total.
Evidence of progress
A reviewed query with a note of what was checked and one error that was corrected.
