# Alert troubleshooting with Netdata Assistant

The Netdata Assistant is a feature that uses large language models and the Netdata community's collective knowledge to guide you during troubleshooting. It is designed to make understanding and root causing alerts simpler and faster.

## Using Netdata Assistant

- Navigate to the alerts tab
- If there are active alerts, the `Actions` column will have an Assistant button

- Clicking on the Assistant button opens up as a floating window with customized information and troubleshooting tips for this alert (note that the window can follow you through your troubleshooting journey on Netdata dashboards)
