interpret a dataset through the lens of another. Finally, you'll learn the meaning of the title.

Start the Assistant. Notice that the left panel changes to show you the context (the files that will
be interrogated and any that will be excluded - either because it's an unsupported format or
something went wrong when extracting the data).

Underneath the context are options for where to write the metadata you wish to create. The following
images show you the options when one file is selected or more than one. In all cases, you can update
the description of the main index. If one file is selected you can choose to update the description
of that file. If more than one file is selected, you can create a new relationship and edit that
description; or, use an existing relationship that is associated to the selected files.

In this way, you can interact with the assistant and capture the information as it suits you.
