The Scenario
You are a platform team lead. The quarterly infrastructure review is this Thursday and the VP of Engineering wants a complete inventory of every Neon project in the organization: region, Postgres version, branch count, compute endpoint status, one row per project, in an Excel workbook.
Right now there is nothing. Just a Neon organization with eighty projects across three regions and a VP who expects a structured workbook before the meeting.
The bad version of the next three hours:
- Open the Neon dashboard
- Read the project list page by page
- Copy each project name, ID, and region into the workbook by hand
- Click into each project for branch count and endpoint status
- Eighty projects, four fields each, all manual
- Format the workbook so it looks presentable
- You finish at 6 PM. The meeting is 9 AM Thursday. The data is already partially out of date.
The fast version is one prompt.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI reads your Neon organization and builds the inventory workbook for you, so you never open the dashboard for bulk data extraction.
Open the SheetXAI sidebar and type:
Pull the full list of Neon projects from my account and populate this workbook with project ID, name, region, owner, and current consumption metrics in separate columns.
SheetXAI calls the Neon API, pulls all eighty projects, and writes the structured inventory into the workbook. Eighty rows, all populated, ready for Thursday.
What You Get
A complete infrastructure inventory with:
- Project ID — the unique identifier
- Project name — the human-readable label
- Region — where compute lives
- Owner — who the project is attributed to
- Consumption metrics — current usage data for cost context
The workbook reflects the current state of the organization, not what someone last wrote down. Run the same prompt next quarter and you get an updated inventory.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Infrastructure workbooks need additional analysis before they are useful in a review. SheetXAI adds the context in the same prompt.
When you need to flag projects with high branch counts
Projects accumulate stale branches. You want to flag any project with more than ten.
Pull all Neon projects and write project ID, name, region, and branch count into the workbook. In a 'Review Flag' column, write 'HIGH BRANCHES' for any project with more than 10 branches.
When the VP wants the inventory sorted by region
The meeting agenda is organized by region.
Pull all Neon projects, sort them by region, and write project ID, name, region, Postgres version, and creation date into the workbook. Add a blank row between each region group.
When you only want projects provisioned in the last 90 days
The review is focused on new infrastructure, not legacy projects.
Pull all Neon projects created in the last 90 days and write their ID, name, region, and Postgres version into the workbook. In a 'Days Since Creation' column, calculate the age of each project.
When you need branch-level detail for every project
The VP wants to see branches, not just projects.
For every Neon project in my organization, list all branches. Write one row per branch showing project ID, project name, branch ID, branch name, parent branch ID, and creation date. Sort by project name, then by branch creation date.
The pattern: describe the exact table you need. SheetXAI builds it from the Neon API.
