Generate files and analyze data

GATestingReleased Apr 2026All plansSource: lovable.dev

Generate files and analyze data is Lovable's Testing feature: Run code and generate outputs directly in chat.

Lovable can now run code directly in the chat, generating downloadable files such as PDFs, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations on the fly, improving data analysis.

Example workflows

Starting points built from this record, not transcripts of a run. Each prompt is written the way it should be sent, as one paragraph, and each is worth editing before you send it.

  1. Stand it up from scratch

    You have read the record and want Generate files and analyze data working in a real project rather than a sandbox.

    Set up Generate files and analyze data in this project — run code and generate outputs directly in chat. Walk it end to end, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself before it works.

    Expected outcome

    A working setup, a plain list of what changed, and a short list of anything left for you to switch on. Check that list before assuming it is done.

  2. Turn a chat request into a downloadable Excel report

    The record lists this as one of the jobs Generate files and analyze data is meant for, so it is a fair first test of whether it fits your app.

    In this project, use Generate files and analyze data for turn a chat request into a downloadable Excel report. Build the smallest version that a real user could complete end to end, keep the change scoped to that path, and tell me how to test it myself.

    Expected outcome

    One complete path a user can walk, the files and settings that changed, and the steps to test it. Walk it yourself before you ship it.

  3. Review it before you publish

    Generate files and analyze data is wired in and you are about to put it in front of people. This is the pass that catches the half-configured version.

    Review how this project uses Generate files and analyze data before I publish. Check code execution in chat and file generation, list anything that is missing, misconfigured, or only half wired, fix what is safe to fix, and tell me what you left alone and why.

    Expected outcome

    A findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.

  4. Generate a PDF summary without leaving the chat interface

    A second job the record lists for Generate files and analyze data, useful once the first path works.

    Extend this project so Generate files and analyze data also covers generate a PDF summary without leaving the chat interface. Reuse what is already wired rather than adding a parallel setup, and tell me what you reused and what is new.

    Expected outcome

    A second path built on the same setup, plus a note on what was shared and what was added.
