Understand Worksheets

Use worksheets to store the queries you define for your IoT application.

You can define a set of worksheets per IoT application. Each of these worksheets can store a set of queries. Typically, you store related queries in the same worksheet.

You can use queries for the following purposes:

  • Interactively query your data using Spark SQL syntax.

  • Create and save queries that you can later use in your production code.

  • Query your links to interact with device streams and data sources.

  • Save and export queries to promote the collaboration between data analysts and developers.

After you add a query to a worksheet, you can run this query to explore the current data from your devices. You can also reuse this query from the code of your analytics processors.
