RAG strategies boost SQL and API call generation from natural language

A new research paper explores strategies for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to improve natural language interfaces for enterprise software. The study focuses on generating SQL queries and REST API calls, tasks that typically require specialized technical knowledge. By evaluating standard RAG, Self-RAG, and CoRAG on a dataset derived from SAP Transactional Banking, the research found that retrieval augmentation is crucial for reliable structured generation. The findings indicate that CoRAG performed best in a combined SQL and REST API generation scenario, particularly under mixed-documentation conditions. AI

IMPACT Enhances natural language interfaces for enterprise software, potentially simplifying data access and API interactions.
