Realm Admin Qrew Breakout Session Recap June 2026
Thank you to everyone who joined the Realm Admin Qrew breakout sessions on Tuesday June 23rd. Here’s what we discussed.
Georgi Georgiev: Why Quickbase Intelligence was built this way
- Shared the product team’s vision for QBI as workflow intelligence inside Quickbase, not just a generic chatbot. He explained how QBI is designed to understand app context, user intent, permissions, and data before helping users take action.
- Qrew tip: Start with one real business question your users already ask, then explore how QBI could help answer it in context.
James Travaglini: How admins can manage AI access with Quickbase Intelligence
- Walked through AI Controls in the Admin Console and showed how admins can turn AI capabilities on or off at the realm and feature level.
- Highlighted permissions for specific users or groups, including controls for features like AI Smart Builder, Import Spreadsheets, AI Workflows, Quick Insights, and AI Agent actions.
- Qrew tip: Pilot AI with a small group first, enable only what they need, and expand access as your governance model matures.
Josh Miller: How AI can support realm cleanup planning
- Shared how he used Realm Insights and Quickbase AI to review governance signals like inactive apps, app ownership, audit log activity, deactivated users, and cleanup opportunities.
- Showed how he used Claude to turn those findings into a leadership-friendly cleanup plan that could be shared with IT and leadership.
- Qrew tip: Use realm data to tell a clear governance story: what needs attention, why it matters, who should be involved, and what timeline makes sense.
