Importing into notebooks

You can import an entire notebook or individual SQL cells into a query editor v2 notebook.

To import an entire notebook from a local file to My notebooks, choose Import Import, then choose Import notebook. Navigate to the .ipynb file that contains your notebook. The notebook is imported into the currently open notebook folder. You can then open the notebook in the notebook editor.

To import a query from a local file into a SQL cell in a notebook, choose Import Import, then choose Import query. On the Import query window, follow the directions on the screen to choose file and folders that can be imported as a query into a new notebook or an existing notebook. The files must have an extension of .sql or .txt. Each query can be up to 10,000 characters. When you add to an existing notebook, you choose which notebook from all notebooks in your Saved notebooks list. The imported queries are added as SQL cells at the end of the notebook. When you choose a new notebook, you choose the name of the notebook and it is created in the currently open saved notebooks folder.

Note

When creating .sql files on macOS using the TextEdit application, you might encounter an issue where an additional hidden extension is added to the file. For instance, a file named Test.sql created in TextEdit might end up being saved as Test.sql.rtf. The query editor v2 does not support files with the .rtf extension. However, if you create a .sql file using TextEdit, and save it as a plain text file, the file has an additional hidden .txt extension. For example, a file named Text.sql might be saved as Text.sql.txt. Unlike the .rtf extension, query editor v2 does support files with the .txt extension, so Text.sql.txt is supported when importing queries to notebooks.
