Saved queries overview

This page describes how saved queries work in AlloyDB for PostgreSQL .

You can use AlloyDB Studio to create, save, and manage SQL scripts as saved queries. The saved queries capability is available only in the Google Cloud console.

Saved queries have the following characteristics:

  • All queries are encrypted.
  • A saved query is a child of a project.
  • Saved queries are deleted when the project is deleted. If you delete the instance or database, you can still access saved queries in the project using the Saved queries page in the Google Cloud console.
  • You must have the correct Identity and Access Management (IAM) role or permissions to view and manage saved queries.
  • You can only access saved queries using the AlloyDB Studio or by navigating to the Saved queries page in the Google Cloud console. Saved queries aren't accessible through the API.

Storage location

AlloyDB stores all saved queries in the us-central1 region.

Limitations

  • You can't create more than 10,000 saved queries in a project—including saved queries for other Google Cloud products. For more information, see Quotas and limits .
  • You can't use customer-managed encryption keys for instances with saved queries.

Pricing
