# Creating Automated Training Data
The Automated tab leverages AI to generate synthetic training examples, accelerating the training process while maintaining quality through review mechanisms.
## Ways to generate training data
### 1. Quick Generation (Synchronous)
Instantly creates up to 10 prompt/query pairs. Navigate to the Text to SQL Training tab in your Data Product and Click the **"Generate"** button.
{% hint style="success" %}
#### **What synchronous generation is best for**
Quick testing or when you need a few examples immediately.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
#### **Trade-offs**
Uses faster but lower-quality models due to speed requirements

### 2. Configured Generation (Asynchronous) - Recommended
Configures ongoing generation of synthetic queries.
* **Quantity**: Specify how many synthetic queries to generate in total
* This number includes existing rows. If you have 5 rows already and set the
* **Auto-approval**: Choose whether queries should be:
* Automatically approved and used immediately
* Held in "pending" status for manual review
#### **Configuration Options**
When setting up automated generation, consider:
* **Volume**: Start with smaller batches (between 5 and 20) to assess quality
* **Review requirements**: Initially, either enable manual review or set a high minimum certainty (between 80% and 95%) to ensure the quality of generated examples
* **Iteration**: Adjust configuration based on the quality of generated examples
{% hint style="success" %}
#### **Why asynchronous generation is preferred**
* Uses higher-quality AI models
* Includes additional validation steps
* Produces more accurate and relevant training examples
* Runs in the background without interrupting your workflow
