Datasets

A dataset is a reusable collection of entries, each with text and images. Bind it to a slide in a workflow, and offgen fills the slide from the entries instead of making content up.

Where: Datasets in the app.offgen.ai sidebar · Who: all members can create and edit datasets; workflow authors bind them

Typical datasets: team members with bio and photo, customer references with logo, products with description and picture.

Create a dataset

1. Open Datasets and select New dataset.
2. Enter a Dataset name and describe what the dataset represents.
3. Select Add entry for each record. Give it a name and write its Content in Markdown. Preview shows the formatted text.
4. Under Images, select Add images or drop images. JPEG, PNG and WebP are supported, up to 10 MB each.

Changes save automatically. You can reorder entries and images, switch between Gallery view and List view, and search the entries.

Use a dataset in a workflow

1. Open the workflow in the builder.
2. In a Slide or Creative block, select Bind a dataset… and choose the dataset.
3. Choose All records, or Pick records to select specific entries.

offgen fills repeated elements in order: the first record fills the leftmost card, the second the next one, and so on. When someone runs the workflow, the slide uses the dataset's current content.

Locking a slide (making it static) removes its dataset bindings.
