Abstract
An example embodiment may involve a software application executable on computing devices of a remote network management platform and a computation instance associated with a managed network. The computational instance may contain a database storing data of the managed network. The software application may receive, from a client device of the managed network, a natural language query (NLQ), and retrieve Backus-Naur form (BNF) rules and a set of metadata associated with the BNF rules. The metadata may include a text-based description of a schema of the database and abbreviations associated with the BNF rules. The NLQ may be parsed using the BNF rules together with the metadata by applying the metadata during parsing to extend the BNF rules. A query object based on the parsed query may be generated, and the database searched using the query object. A result of the search may be transmitted to the client device.
