Attach records and time range

Attach records and time range

Context tells Njord AI what your question is about. The right context turns a broad prompt into a useful answer.

Use this article when you need to decide what to attach, how much to attach and which time range to choose.

What Counts As Context

Context can include:

  • The account, stakeholder, or deal page you are viewing.
  • Records selected from a picker.
  • A signal from the Signals feed.
  • A shortcut and its selected inputs.
  • A time range.
  • Earlier messages in the same chat.

Choose The Smallest Useful Context

More context is not always better. Choose the smallest set that can answer the question.

QuestionBest context
"Prepare for this account meeting."One account, key stakeholder if known, Last 30 Days.
"Who should I follow up with?"Account or stakeholder list, recent time range.
"Which Website Leads matter?"Website Leads list, Last 30 Days or Last 3 Months.
"Explain this signal."The signal and related account or stakeholder.
"Compare these accounts."Only the accounts being compared.

Pick The Right Time Range

Time rangeUse it forWatch out for
TodayVery recent activity.May be too narrow for patterns.
Last 7 DaysUrgent follow-up.Can miss earlier context.
Last 30 DaysCurrent account momentum.Good default for sales action.
This Month or Last MonthMonthly review.Use the same month when comparing.
Last 3 MonthsCampaign trends and account movement.May include older activity.
All TimeBackground history.Not always useful for urgent action.

If a question is about "what should we do now," use a recent range first.

My Data And Workspace Data

Some views and prompts can reflect your personal scope or the broader workspace. My data is best for your own follow-up. Workspace data is best for team review and leadership summaries.

When sharing an answer, say which scope you used.

Check Before Sending

Before sending, confirm:

  • The chips show the right records.
  • The time range matches the decision.
  • The prompt asks for one clear output.
  • The selected records all belong to this question.
  • The chat does not contain unrelated earlier context.

If The Answer Uses The Wrong Context

Use this follow-up:

"Ignore the previous context. Use only [record/list] and [time range]. Answer as [summary/table/next actions]."

If the chat is already messy, start a new chat instead.
