Open Assistant and switch to Learn. The Assistant asks about your role, the products or features you want to understand, and the problem you’re trying to solve, for example:

I’m an SRE. Teach me how to use metrics, logs, and traces to look into latency for our checkout service.

Lessons teach one concept or action at a time. The Assistant pauses between steps and asks before it creates or changes anything.

Learn mode turns the Assistant into a guided observability coach. When you switch to Learn mode, the Assistant asks about your role, the Grafana products you want to understand, and the problem you’re trying to solve. It then suggests lessons tailored to your environment and goals.

Lessons in Learn mode are hands-on. The Assistant teaches one concept or action at a time and pauses between steps to check in. If it offers to create a dashboard or run a query, it asks for your approval before continuing. You can ask for a simpler explanation, switch to a different example, or change direction at any point.

Learn mode works best when you’ve connected the data sources you want the Assistant to use as context. If your environment has Assistant memories available, the Assistant uses them to make lessons even more relevant. At the end of a lesson, the Assistant can help you apply what you learned to real work in your own dashboards and services.
