# Quick Topics Agent Bill 2.0 uses 4 QuickSight Topics as its semantic data layer. Each topic defines a set of fields (dimensions and measures) with friendly names, synonyms, and default aggregations that Agent Bill uses to answer user queries. Topics are assigned to roles via the persona instruction system — not all roles have access to all topics. When a user asks about a topic they don't have access to, Agent Bill redirects them to the FinOps team. The Cost Management topic is the primary (default) topic for all roles. The table below shows which topics are available to each role, followed by detailed field definitions for each topic. Topics for Roles within Quick Chat Personas
