Query results
Usually, when you run a query, you receive results in a table format. Each statement appears in a separate tab in the Services tool window. For example, if you have two SELECT
statements in the query, you will see two tabs in the tool window.
The Services tool window includes a list of consoles that are grouped according to a connection session to a data source.
For more information about query consoles and Services tool window, refer to Working with query consoles and Services tool window.
Result tabs
Open a new tab for each new query
By default, DataGrip updates the same tab with results each time you run a new query after the previous one. You can change this behavior and create a tab each time you run a new query.
In the IDE settings Control+Alt+S, go to
.Select the Open results in new tab checkbox and click OK.
Use custom titles for tabs with results
You can define a tab title in the comment section before the query. In the Treat text as title after field, you can reserve a combination of symbols or characters after which any text will be treated as a tab title. By default, no combination is used, so any text after --
or /*
is treated as a tab title.
Open settings by pressing Control+Alt+S, navigate to
.In the Treat text as title after field, define a combination for tab titles.
To disable this feature, open settings Control+Alt+S, navigate to Create title for results from comment before query checkbox.
, and clear theFor more examples of custom titles for tabs, see Name the result tabs at youtube.com.
Pin the tab with query results
If one and the same tab is used to show your query results, and you get the result that you want to keep, you can pin the tab to the tool window.
Right-click the tab and select Pin Tab.
In-Editor Results
You can also view the query results within the editor. To do that, use the In-Editor Results feature.
To toggle the In-Editor Results feature for the current file, click the In-Editor Results icon.
To toggle the In-Editor Results feature for all files across the IDE, open settings by pressing Control+Alt+S and navigate to . Clear the Show results in editor checkbox.
Result sets
View two result sets in the editor
Click the In-Editor Results button to view result sets one above another.
Edit values in the result set
In the result set, click a cell value that you want to edit.
Specify a new value and press Enter.
To submit changes to a database, click the Submit icon (), or press Control+Enter.
Compare two result sets
Run queries to tables that you want to compare.
In the Services tool window, click the Compare with icon (), and select the result set that you want to add to diff.
If needed, change a value of the Tolerance parameter in the comparison dialog. The Tolerance parameter defines a maximum number of differences that are allowed between two result sets. For example, if you want to consider two rows as equal if their data differs in a single column, enter
1
in the Tolerance field.See another example of comparing two result sets in Compare data at youtube.com.
Output tab
View query log
On the Output tab in the Services tool window, you can see a log of user and internal queries.
Open a console for a data source F4.
Run a query for a data source.
In the Services tool window, select a corresponding session for your console and click the Output tab.
Enable output from the DBMS_OUTPUT package (Oracle)

To toggle the DBMS_OUTPUT option, click the Enable SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT button on the toolbar of the Services tool window.
