Edit and convert a legacy Parameterized Quick Query

Edit a legacy Parameterized Quick Query and convert it to a version 10+ Parameterized Quick Query.

You can now run a legacy Parameterized Quick Query the same as you would a version 10+ Parameterized Quick Query. However, if you need to make changes to your legacy PQQ, you can open and edit the PQQ, but you will then need to save it as a version 10+ PQQ. Compatibility Mode is no longer available as of version 15 of the Insights Platform.

To edit and convert a legacy Parameterized Quick Query:

  1. Open the Object Manager and locate the legacy Parameterized Quick Query you want to edit. The legacy PQQs are identified by the icon.
    Note: If you use a Parameterized Quick Query often, you may want to add it to your favorites. You can then find it quickly and easily in the Favorites tab on the Dashboard.
  2. Right-click the legacy Parameterized Quick Query and choose Open in TRSfrom the menu.
    Note: Depending on your workspace association settings, you may also double-click a legacy Parameterized Quick Query to open it. For instruction on setting your workspace associations, see Define object associations.
    Alternatively, you can launch a new TRS window and double-click the legacy Parameterized Quick Query within TRS.
    The legacy Parameterized Quick Query timeline appears in TRS.

  3. To edit operations that are not parameterized selections, do the following for each operation:
    1. Click the operation to edit.
    2. Make the necessary changes.
    3. Click the Submit operation () icon.
  4. To edit parameterized selections, do the following for each parameterized selection:
    1. In the timeline, click the panel of the operation containing the parameters you want to edit.
      The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet displays the Parameters view of the operation panel.

    2. Click the Edit block () icon.
      The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet displays the Block setup view of the operation panel.

    3. Edit the appropriate fields and options for each parameter that you want to update.
      Note: Make sure there is a default value for the parameter, unless you select Allow this selection to be bypassed. This option allows for an empty selection.
      See Block setup panel for more information.
    4. Click the Submit operation () icon.
      The Trillion-Row Spreadsheet saves the changes and displays the Parameters view of the operation panel.

After editing the desired parameters in the analysis, you can save it as a new Parameterized Quick Query or replace the existing one. For instructions, see Save an analysis as a Quick Query. The Parameterized Quick Query will be saved as a version 10+ PQQ (with a icon). Test your converted PQQ by running it from the Object Manager. See Run a Parameterized Quick Query for more information.
