# Activate the data visualization generation skill {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Give users generative AI capabilities for creating data visualizations from the ServiceNow Otto panel by activating the data visualization generation skill.

## Before you begin

The data visualization generation skill is included in Generative AI Controller, which is in most ServiceNow Otto® applications from the ServiceNow® Store.

The Query Generation skills "analytics query generation" and "analytics insight generation" are required. To support queries on indicator data, the Query Generation skill "analytics query generation for indicators" is required. These skills are active by default. For more information, see [Query Generation skills](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/LByL5bZ_QG9ROLbI~1HODQ "Query Generation skills enable users to ask questions in ServiceNow Otto for Platform Analytics applications and receive answers.").

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAI Admin HubSkills.
2. In the product area pane, select Data and AnalyticsAnalytics.
3. In AI skills for Analytics, filter for Analytics Skills and search for the data visualization generation skill.  

   <br />

4. **Optional:** To see information about the skill, select View details.  
   The information includes the following details:
   * A description of the skill
   * Key benefits
   * Dependencies and other recommended skills, if applicable
   {#configure-analytics-assist__ul_g2d_mrv_2kc}
5. Select Turn on.
6. **Optional:** In the User access - Access Control List (ACL) page, you can add roles who can use this skill.  
   By default, the now.assist.creator.analytics and now_assist_analytics_generation roles have these rights. Think carefully before making any changes.

   All Analytics skills have this option. The data
   visualization skill and Query Generation skills should have one role in common. Note that both default data visualization generation roles contains the sn_query_gen.user role, which is the default role for Query Generation skills.

   After installation, you can return to the AI Admin Hub and change role access for the skill. Select Edit Configuration on the tile for an activated skill to reopen the User access - Access Control List (ACL) page.
