3 Ways to Build SQL Queries for Visualization in Draxlr

Before creating visualizations, you need to generate the desired dataset by constructing SQL queries.

Draxlr offers 3 distinct ways to create SQL queries, catering to users with different levels of SQL expertise:

1. Query Builder

For those who prefer a no-code approach, Draxlrโ€™s query builder allows users to create queries using a visual interface. This method is perfect for users who may not be familiar with SQL but still want to generate meaningful insights.

Draxlr Query Builder offers 5 options in Query Builder:

  • ๐Ÿ”Ž Filter - Filter Supabase table data by value of a specific field.
  • ๐Ÿ”— Join - To combine multiple Supabase tables to analyze data from them.
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Sort - Order Supabase table data by a field value.
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Aggregate
    • Group by - To group data by a field, or formatted field data.
    • Function - Apply functions like min, max, sum, average, count, and distinct count.
  • ๐ŸŽฏ Select - Specify which fields to show in the result.

You can apply the above options in steps, each step is applied to the result of the previous step. You can create complex queries using it, and even convert the query to raw SQL query to add further customizations.

Draxlr leverages AI to help users generate SQL queries effortlessly. Users can describe what they need in plain language, and the AI translates it into SQL, eliminating the need to write repetitive queries from scratch.

This significantly saves time for tech users by automating the generation of base SQL queries, allowing them to focus on refining complex logic rather than spending time on basic query structuring.
