The SQL editor runs CarbonQL — Carbon’s read-only SQL dialect — directly against your events. Open it from SQL in the dashboard.

Write a query

Write a SELECT over the physical event columns. The schema panel on the right lists every column and allowed function; select one to insert it at the cursor.
Select Run (or press ) to execute. Results appear below the editor with the row count and query time.

Scope and bounds

  • {fromMs} and {toMs} are bound to the selected time range — reference them in your WHERE clause. Change the range from the header.
  • Your query is automatically scoped to your space; you never write (and cannot widen) a spaceId filter.
  • The editor is read-only by construction — the dialect cannot express writes or DDL — and every query runs under scan, memory, and row limits.

Errors

A malformed query reports the failure inline, with the line and column when the engine can locate it, so you can jump straight to the problem.
Your draft is kept in your browser between visits. The editor does not save named queries.
