Data Studio allows viewing and managing frequently used SQL queries. The history of executed SQL queries is maintained only for the SQL Terminal.

Follow the steps to view the SQL history:

Click in the SQL Terminal tab.
The SQL History dialog box is displayed.

SQL history scripts are not encrypted.

The number of queries saved in the SQL History dialog box is based on the value defined in Preferences > Editor > SQL History pane. Refer to the SQL History section to modify the SQL History count. Data Studio overwrites the older queries into the SQL history after the list is full. The executed query is automatically stored in the list.

The SQL History dialog box has the following columns:

Pin Status - Displays the pinned status of the queries. Pinned queries will always show on the top and it will not be deleted from the history even when the list is full.
SQL Statement - Displays the SQL query. The number of characters for an SQL query displayed in the SQL Statement column is based on the number defined in Preferences > Editor > SQL History pane. Refer to the SQL History section to modify the number of characters for a query.
Number of Records - Displays the number of records fetched by the SQL query.
Start Time - Displays the time the query execution was started.
Execution Time - Displays the time taken to execute the query.
Database Name - Displays the name of the database.
Execution Status - Displays the execution status of the query as Success or Failure.

Deleting the connection profile deletes the history. If the SQL History dialog box is closed, the query is not removed from the list.
