49. SQL Builder — build a query visually, no SQL required
SQL Builder is the visual query generator — write production-grade SQL without writing any SQL.
Pick the table or tables, pick which columns you want, set the filter conditions, sort, limit — and the node assembles the SQL for you in real time.
You see the assembled SQL in a preview box at the bottom of the panel; if you ARE a SQL person and want to tweak it by hand, the Final SQL box is fully editable.
The output of this node is a SQL string — pipe it into a Database Query node and you've got data flowing from your database into the workflow with zero hand-written SQL.
This is one of the biggest, most powerful nodes in the product, and we're going to walk every step.
In this lesson we'll walk through:
• This is SQL Builder on the canvas
• One panel — eight numbered steps, every one collapsible
• Step 1 — pick tables from your database (221 tables to choose from)
• Step 1 cont'd — Quick Add Columns and Add Field
• Step 4 — WHERE filter conditions (+ Advanced Filter Groups for AND / OR logic)
• Step 6 — Sort Rules + live preview of the ORDER BY clause
• Step 7 — LIMIT and Offset
• Step 8 — Live SQL preview + editable Final SQL + Query Info stats
• Three more powers behind the visual builder
• What SQL Builder hands off
That's SQL Builder top to bottom.
