Manage Saved Queries in Atlas

After you connect to your cluster, you can load saved queries from the My Queries view. This page explains how to add and view favorite queries.

You can favorite a query for future use. If you load a favorite query, you can change it without changing the original saved copy.

To add a query to your favorites:

1

Click the clock icon on the query bar in the Documents pane.

2

Hover over your query and click the star Star button.

3

Enter a name for your query.

4

After you connect to your cluster, you can view your saved queries and aggregation pipelines on the My Queries tab.

Note

To learn how to save and view aggregation pipelines, see:

  • Save a Pipeline

  • Open a Saved Pipeline

When you click a saved or favorite query tile, Atlas opens the Documents tab with the filter loaded.

In the My Queries tab, you can also click a saved aggregation pipeline tile to open the Aggregations tab with the pipeline loaded.

You can also view favorite queries from the Favorites tab from in the Documents view. To open the Favorites tab:

1

Click the clock icon at the top of the Documents tab.

2

Select your favorited operation.

  • If your favorited operation is a query, the Favorites list view only displays a Filter statement, copy icon, and delete icon.

    Note

    Clicking a favorited query in the Favorites list view populates your Query Bar with that query.

  • If your favorited operation is a bulk update statement, the Favorites list view only displays a Filter statement, Update statement, copy icon, delete icon, and open new tab icon.

    Note

    If you click the open new tab icon, the Update Documents modal opens with the bulk update statement and the filter criteria. For details on bulk update statements in Atlas, see Modify Multiple Documents.

For details on how to view query history see viewing recent query history.
