Exploring SQL Queries

To work with SQL queries, your Turbonomic user account must have Report Editor permission. To explore queries:

  1. Navigate to the Explore page.

    The page displays with a sample query already in place

  2. Choose to explore Turbo Timescale.

    Next to the page title, Explore, you can choose which database to work with. Choose the database Turbo Timescale.

    If you have installed an external TimescaleDB, be sure to choose th name that you gave to that database.

  3. Edit the Explore query.

    The page displays a default query. You can edit this query to change the data the page displays. At the bottom of the default query, click Edit SQL. This displays a field where you can enter the SQL that you want.

    To test your query, click Run Query. If your query includes data points over time, you can choose Format As: Time Series. For tabular data, choose Format As: Table.

    To help you build these queries, this document describes the schema tables, and provides some sample queries against them.
