Ask Causely

Ask Causely is an AI-powered conversational interface built into the Causely system that helps you investigate incidents, understand service health, and analyze system behavior through natural language queries. Rather than navigating through dashboards and metrics, you can ask direct questions about your environment and receive contextual answers based on Causely's causal reasoning engine and real-time telemetry data.

Ask Causely understands your service topology, active incidents, and historical patterns to provide relevant insights whether you're troubleshooting an active issue, performing post-incident analysis, or proactively monitoring system health.

Enabling Ask Causely

If Ask Causely is not already enabled for your account, please contact your Causely representative or reach out to support to request access to Ask Causely.

Using Ask Causely in the Web Interface

In the Web UI, Ask Causely is always only one click away. Click the Ask Causely button at the top right corner to start a conversation.

Ask Causely will reference your active scope and context to respond to your queries.

Setting Up Slack Integration

Using Ask Causely in Slack

Once the integration is configured, you can interact with Ask Causely in any channel where the bot is present by simply mentioning @Causely followed by your question. You can ask questions naturally without needing special syntax or commands, and Ask Causely will respond directly in the channel with relevant insights and context. You can continue the conversation with follow-up questions in the same thread, maintaining context throughout your investigation.
