07/31/2026, 4:27 AMenableAskSage attribute.
- If it is not enabled, users will typically just see the normal Explore action instead.
So I’d verify these 3 things:
1. Org-level / instance-level feature enablement
- Ask your cluster admin / org admin whether the AI feature is enabled in both orgs.
- If needed, confirm with ThoughtSpot Support, because the docs explicitly say this feature may need Support enablement.
2. Embed config
- If this is an embedded Liveboard, check whether the app is passing:
js
enableAskSage: true
If one org’s embed path sets it and another doesn’t, that would explain the difference.
3. Same cluster / same release
- If the orgs are on different environments or rollout states, feature availability can differ even when user privileges match.
I couldn't find anything in the official ThoughtSpot documentation for a specific UI page that shows “Ask AI enabled/disabled” status per org.
Closest match: enableAskSage — embed setting used to enable or disable Ask Sage for embedded application users.

07/31/2026, 4:28 AMAskAi is a distinct action used for Spotter/AI experiences in Liveboards, but they do not document a per-user privilege that directly maps to “show Ask AI vs show Explore” in that tile CTA.
- **Different user experience state or backend eligibility**: if one user/session is eligible for the AI flow, the tile can show **Ask AI**; otherwise it falls back to Explore. I couldn’t find official docs that list the exact decision tree for that button swap.
So the practical places to check are:
1. Whether Ask AI / Spotter is enabled on the instance
2. Whether those users are licensed/entitled for the AI experience
3. Whether the same worksheet/KPI is AI-eligible for both users
4. Whether a phased rollout / tenant-side feature flag differs by user session
I couldn't find anything in the official ThoughtSpot documentation for the exact rule that decides why one Liveboard tile shows Ask AI and another shows Explore for users in the same org with the same embed config.
Closest match: Action.AskAi — action ID for launching the Ask AI / Spotter experience in Liveboard and embed contexts.

08/04/2026, 5:53 AMEnumeration_Action = the authoritative SDK enum definition. It lists the actual Action members you use in code, such as Action.Explore and Action.AskAi, plus their exact string values and descriptions.
- /docs/actions = the usage/catalog page. It explains where actions appear in the product UI and which embed types support them, grouped by page like Liveboard, Search, Answers, etc.
So in practice:
- Use Enumeration_Action when writing code with visibleActions, hiddenActions, or disabledActions.
- Use actions when you want to know whether an action applies to a Liveboard, Answer, Search page, full app, etc.
One important detail from the enum page:
- Action.Explore = “The Explore action on Liveboard visualizations”
- Action.AskAi = “Action ID for the Ask Sage in Natural Language Search embed, Spotter in Liveboard, full app, and Spotter embed.”
That means Explore and AskAi are distinct built-in actions, not just two labels for the same control.
