Inline Editing #

Click any cell in the results table to edit its value directly. SELECT builds UPDATE statements from your changes so you can review them before they hit the database.

Two edited cells in a result, outlined in green: a status changed to refunded and an amount set to 0, with Review, Rollback and a count of two edits in the header above them.

Requirements #

Inline editing works when the query result includes all primary key columns for the target table. If primary keys are missing, SELECT shows a notification listing the missing columns. Primary key columns themselves are not editable.

Computed or expression columns (e.g. COUNT(*), a + b) cannot be edited.

Reviewing and applying #

The table header shows the number of edited rows. Two actions are available:

Review generates UPDATE statements grouped by row. Each modified row produces one UPDATE with a WHERE clause built from its primary key values. The SQL opens as a new temporary file so you can inspect it, adjust it, or run it like any other query.
Rollback discards all pending edits and resets the table to its original state.

The generated file: two UPDATE statements against main.orders, one setting a quoted status and one an unquoted number, each with a WHERE on the row’s id.

You can also rollback individual cells by clicking the rollback icon that appears on hover.

Type handling #

Values are formatted in the generated SQL according to their column type:

Input	SQL output
empty + NULL	`NULL`
boolean	`TRUE` / `FALSE`
numeric	`42`, `3.14` (unquoted)
text	`'escaped value'`

Column names that collide with reserved keywords are automatically quoted for the target dialect.
