What this feature does

The query editor helps you author and run Azure Cosmos DB SQL queries with:

  • Syntax highlighting.
  • Multiple results views (table, JSON, tree).
  • Query execution from the editor.

Open the query editor

  1. In the Azure view, expand your Azure Cosmos DB account.
  2. Expand a database and then a container.
  3. Right-click the container and select the query editor action.

Azure Cosmos DB SQL query editor in Visual Studio Code with query input and result panes.

Write and run a query

  1. Enter a query in the editor.
  2. Run the query using the query action in the editor toolbar.
  3. Start with a validation query if needed:
SELECT TOP 10 * FROM c
  1. Iterate by adding filters and ordering:
SELECT c.id, c.status, c.updatedAt
FROM c
WHERE c.status = "active"
ORDER BY c.updatedAt DESC

Review results and stats

  • Use table view to quickly scan fields.
  • Use JSON view for full payload validation.
  • Use tree view for nested documents.
  • Check query statistics when tuning performance-sensitive queries.

Save and rerun patterns

  • Keep reusable query snippets in your workspace.
  • Re-run baseline and tuned variants to compare behavior.

Troubleshooting

  • If query execution fails, validate SQL syntax and field names.
  • If results are empty, run SELECT TOP 10 * FROM c to inspect sample documents.
  • If access fails, verify account and data permissions in Azure.
