Queries

Introduction

Queries are the read side of your database workflow, and they usually shape everything the user sees first. This tour shows how Query steps fit into Server Connect, what you are really asking the database to return, and why understanding filters and outputs makes the later data-binding steps easier to reason about.

Select columns + add filters

Bind results via App Connect

Database Queries

Use the Database Query step in Server Connect to select data visually. You can choose tables/columns, add filters, joins, sorting, and limits.

Select tables + columns

Add filters/joins/sort

Filters with Inputs

Combine queries with input variables (GET/POST/Route) to filter results, implement search, or load a record by ID.

Use inputs for search/filter

Keep filters parameterized

Bind to Pages

Expose your query through a Server Action, then bind it on the page using App Connect (Repeat, Data Detail, Data Views).
