When you create a bookmark for a query which returns many rows, we could be able to filtrate a bit by giving a sample value to [VARIABLE].

    Please choose a feature request that does not have the GSOC 2014 label, because these are reserved for GSOC 2014 projects.

    Hi Marc,
    I don't seem to understand this particular feature very well. Currently we need to add /[VARIABLE]/ to the sql query and only then we can bookmark a query with a variable. Is the purpose of this feature to define 'where clause with the [VARIABLE]' in a separate text box inside bookmark creation form instead of the query itself ? It would be very helpful if you could help me out. Thank you

    Viduranga,
    I'm not sure to understand this feature request, maybe Clement or Isaac have a better idea.

    My understanding of this request is exactly what Viduranga wrote two comments above this.

    However, it's been a feature request for seven years with no additional comments of voting, so I wonder if it's something most users would really use.

      Isaac,
      I think it would be safe to remove this feature request from the ideas list and to mark it as pending until we get more details.

    We are looking for feedback from Clement or others who would use this feature; will close shortly if there's no interest.
