SQL worksheets give you the ability to write SQL queries directly in a workbook. Use SQL worksheets to combine processes that might take several steps using the traditional interface.

Using SQL Worksheets

Open a SQL worksheet

Open a workbook, select Sheets from the menu bar and select Add SQL Sheet.

A new worksheet is added to your workbook with a multiline SQL editor instead of a formula editor.

Write supported SQL syntax to create a query in Datameer's SQL editor like you would when using an actual SQL database.

To activate the query, click the check box on the right side of the SQL editor.
