Course Description
Build Interactive AI Apps in Sigma
In this course, you’ll learn how to design and build dynamic AI apps in Sigma that actively respond to user input. Rather than relying on static dashboards, you’ll create applications that blend data, logic, and interaction to deliver meaningful, action-oriented experiences. The course focuses on practical app-building techniques that help you guide users, automate workflows, and present insights in intuitive ways.
Capture and Govern User Input
You’ll start with the foundational building blocks of Sigma apps, including linked input tables. These allow you to display warehouse data alongside user-entered values, enabling direct interaction with underlying datasets. You’ll also learn best practices for controlling and governing user input, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and data integrity throughout your app.
Add Interactivity with Modals and Actions
As you progress, you’ll enhance your apps with modals and action sequences. Modals let you surface additional details or collect focused input without cluttering the main interface, while action sequences allow a single user interaction to trigger multiple outcomes. Together, these tools help you create responsive apps that feel intuitive and purposeful.
Refine the User Experience
Finally, you’ll polish your apps using thoughtful layout and design elements such as popovers, buttons, dividers, and tabbed containers. These features help organize content, improve navigation, and create a clean, professional look. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to build AI apps in Sigma that are engaging, efficient, and ready for real-world use.

Adding workflow sequencing to AI Apps
In Chapter 2, you learn how to make your AI apps more interactive and responsive by using modals and action sequences. Modals allow you to present focused pop-up windows within your app, giving users access to additional information or providing a space for more detailed input without cluttering the main interface. You see how modals can improve usability and guide users through specific tasks.
The chapter also introduces action sequences, which enable apps to respond dynamically to user actions such as clicking a button or selecting a table row. You learn how to trigger multiple effects from a single interaction, helping automate workflows and streamline user experiences. Together, modals and action sequences give you powerful tools to build apps that feel intuitive, interactive, and purposeful.

Creating cohesive, intuitive AI Apps
Chapter 3 focuses on refining the user interface and overall experience of your AI apps. You begin by learning about popovers, a versatile UI element used to hide filter menus or display contextual information only when it’s needed. This helps keep apps clean while still providing users with easy access to controls and details.
The chapter also explores a range of design and organizational features that enhance both usability and visual appeal. You learn how to incorporate navigational buttons, dividers and tabbed containers to structure content and guide users through your app more effectively. By the end of Chapter 3, you’ll understand how thoughtful layout and design choices can make your AI apps more intuitive, polished, and enjoyable to use.
