Query workbench

Work with query tabs, run and cancel queries, filter and sort results, export CSV, save queries, restore drafts and understand result limits.

  • Work with query tabs

    Open several query tabs per connection, each with its own database, context or namespace scope, and keep them open while you switch between workspaces.

  • Run and cancel a query

    Run a query with Cmd or Ctrl+Enter, cancel it while it runs and understand the 20-second timeout and what cancelling does on the database server.

  • Filter, sort and inspect results

    Filter fetched rows by text, sort any column, page through 50 rows at a time and open a row in the inspector to read long values or copy it as JSON.

  • Export query results to CSV

    Save the current query result as a CSV file from DevOpsPad, with every field quoted, spreadsheet formula injection guarded and file permissions limited to you.

  • Saved queries and query history

    Save reusable queries on your device, reopen any of your last 100 queries from this session and jump to a connection with the Cmd or Ctrl+K palette.

  • Restore query drafts after restart

    Turn on Restore query drafts on startup to bring back your open tabs, query text and scopes after a restart, without saving results or running anything.

  • Why results stop at 500 rows

    DevOpsPad caps previews at 500 rows or documents and 8 MiB, with a 20-second timeout. See the limit for each engine and how to page through larger data.
