Quickstart

From zero to a finished map in five minutes.

1. Sign in with Google

Click the QGIS AI icon in the toolbar. A dock opens on the right. Click Sign in with Google. A browser tab takes you through Google’s consent screen. When it closes, you’re in.

2. Ask for a map

In the chat box, try something like:

Load the admin_boundary layer from PostGIS (localhost:5432, db=city).
Buffer it by 500m and style it with 30% opacity green.

The assistant will:

• Resolve the data source
• Pick the right processing tool
• Apply the style
• Add the result to your canvas

3. Iterate

Every reply is a conversation. Ask for changes:

Make the buffer 250m instead. Color it by population density.

Tips

• Keep prompts concrete. “Buffer roads 100m” beats “make a buffer.”
• Reference layers by name when possible.
• Use the @ symbol to autocomplete layer names from your project.
