Let's create a sample table and query data from it using the Hasura console, a UI tool meant for doing exactly this:
Create a table
--------------
Head to the Hasura console, navigate to ``Data -> Create table`` and create a sample table called ``profile`` with
the following columns:
.. code-block:: sql
profile (
id INT PRIMARY KEY,
name TEXT
)
.. thumbnail:: ../../../img/graphql/manual/getting-started/create-profile-table.png
Now, insert some sample data into the table using the ``Insert Row`` tab of the ``profile`` table.
Try out a query
---------------
Head to the ``GraphiQL`` tab in the console and try running the following query:
.. code-block:: graphql
query {
profile {
id
name
}
}
You'll see that you get all the inserted data!
