The Data Explorer is available from each database detail page at /dashboard/{id}/explorer. It is designed for quick inspection and controlled changes inside the dashboard, without replacing your normal database client.

Tabs

Tables

The Tables tab lists public tables in the selected database and lets you preview rows with pagination.
  • Only tables in the public schema are shown
  • Row previews are paginated in the UI
  • Table browsing is scoped to the database opened from the dashboard

SQL Query

The SQL Query tab runs a single guarded statement at a time. Allowed statement types:
  • SELECT
  • INSERT
  • UPDATE
  • DELETE
  • CREATE TABLE
  • CREATE INDEX
Additional rules:
  • UPDATE and DELETE require a WHERE clause
  • Only one statement is allowed per run
  • The explorer is limited to the selected database and the public schema
  • System catalogs and system schemas are blocked
Write statements can return affected-row counts, and RETURNING queries show rows in the result grid.

What the explorer blocks

The explorer blocks destructive or escape-hatch SQL such as:
  • DROP
  • TRUNCATE
  • ALTER
  • multi-statement batches
  • transaction/session control statements
  • explicit system-schema access
Explorer guardrails only apply here. Direct PostgreSQL connections still use your normal database credentials and privileges.
