Generating Calculated Fields From Natural Language

Mar 10, 2025 By Molly Stamos In Honeycomb
If you’ve been using Honeycomb for a bit, you know that Calculated Fields (otherwise known as derived columns) are a powerful way to transform your events to a format that’s easier to query and understand. However, they use a lisp-esque language that can be difficult to read and a pain to write. If you dislike making Calculated Fields and want something a little easier, here’s a generative AI prompt that can generate them from natural language.
