Core Features
Explorer
Explorer helps you understand a database before writing SQL. It is the safest place to start when you are unfamiliar with a schema.
What You Can Inspect
| Area | What to Look For |
|---|---|
| Databases and schemas | Available namespaces and table grouping |
| Tables | Table names, purpose, and row shape |
| Columns | Names, types, and likely meanings |
| Sample rows | Representative values and null patterns |
| Relationships | IDs, foreign-key-like names, and join candidates |
Why It Matters
- You can avoid guessing table and column names.
- AI Chat can work with better schema context.
- SQL Console queries are easier to validate.
- You can identify safe preview queries before running larger analysis.
Recommended Flow
- Select a connection.
- Browse schemas and tables.
- Open a table and inspect columns.
- Preview a small sample when available.
- Move to SQL Console or AI Chat with the table context in mind.
Table Detail Pages
Use table details to understand column names, data types, and examples before writing filters, joins, or aggregations.
Working with AI
When asking AI to generate SQL, mention the exact table and columns you confirmed in Explorer. This reduces hallucinated column names and makes the first draft easier to review.
