Patent attributes
Techniques for executing operations associated with sub-sets of queries in a set of nested queries are disclosed. A graphical user interface displays individual sub-queries as separate visual representations. Based on detecting a selection, a system executes a selected query in the set of nested queries, without executing parent queries in the set of nested queries. Based on detecting another selection, the system exports a selected query without exporting parent queries of the selected query. The system copies the metadata describing the selected query and transfers the metadata to another set of nested queries. Based on detecting another selection, the system displays a results count for a selected query. The system displays a number representing the number of results returned by the selected query, without displaying the query results.
