Getting started

Your first query

This guide walks you through building a nested filter and running it against sample data. It takes about five minutes.

1. Open the builder

Go to the builder. You will see a dot-grid canvas with one empty condition card and a sidebar on the right.

2. Add two simple conditions

  1. Select data source Users in the Details tab (if not already selected).
  2. Rule 1: AgeGreater Than18
  3. Click + Add condition
  4. Rule 2: CountryEqualsNigeria

The group chip should read AND — both rules must match.

3. Add a nested OR group

  1. Click + Add group and set the new group to OR.
  2. Inside it, add: Status = active
  3. Add another condition: Purchases > 10

Your logic is now:

(age > 18 AND country = 'Nigeria')
OR (status = 'active' AND purchases > 10)

4. Preview and run

  1. Open the Query sidebar tab — SQL updates as you type.
  2. Switch format to MongoDB or GraphQL to see other outputs.
  3. Open Results and click Execute.

Execute only works when status is Valid in the Details tab. See the validation guide for what blocks a run.

5. Save your work

  • Ctrl+S — save a snapshot to the Activity tab
  • Export — download query JSON from the header
  • Quick presets — name and save reusable templates in the Details tab
