DataGrip 2019.3 Help

Run a query

To run a query, create a new or open an existing SQL file, connect it to a data source, and run your code. In the Services tool window, you can view data sources (1), connection sessions (2), and attached files (3). The small green light indicates that you are connected to a data source.

The Services tool window

Run statements from an opened file

  3. Press Ctrl+Enter or select Execute from the context menu.

  4. (Optional) If the SQL file is not connected to a data source, select or create a connection session in the Sessions window. For more information about sessions, see Managing connection sessions.
