Query Tools
Query Tools is a special interface used to run queries and statements against a database. This interface can be accessed manually or by running a stored query from the Queries interface. The database configuration and connection information must be available in the Databases interface before those settings can be used by this interface.
See Queries and Databases for more information.
Note:
Not all databases can be connected to using this interface.
Refer to the Grid Details section for details on how to interact with the interface.
This user interface calls REST methods from api/database/queryTools.
To open this interface, from the main navigation menu, select Configuration, then Databases, and then Query Tools.
Caution:
Be careful when using this interface. It is possible to:
-
Delete data with malformed queries.
-
Cause database performance issues when querying large datasets.
See the following table for the language used in each schema and database.
| Schema | Database | Language |

| Assure1 | MySQL | SQL |
| Event | MySQL | SQL |
| Graph | Neo4j | Cypher Query Language |
