<h1>Data Profiling<a class="headerlink" href="#data-profiling" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>Part of being productive with data is having the right weapons to
profile the data you are working with. Airflow provides a simple query
interface to write SQL and get results quickly, and a charting application
letting you visualize data.</p>
<div class="section" id="adhoc-queries">
<h2>Adhoc Queries<a class="headerlink" href="#adhoc-queries" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The adhoc query UI allows for simple SQL interactions with the database
connections registered in Airflow.</p>
<img alt="_images/adhoc.png" src="_images/adhoc.png" />
</div>
<div class="section" id="charts">
<h2>Charts<a class="headerlink" href="#charts" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>A simple UI built on top of flask-admin and highcharts allows building
data visualizations and charts easily. Fill in a form with a label, SQL,
chart type, pick a source database from your environment’s connections,
select a few other options, and save it for later use.</p>
<p>You can even use the same templating and macros available when writing
airflow pipelines, parameterizing your queries and modifying parameters
directly in the URL.</p>
<p>These charts are basic, but they’re easy to create, modify and share.</p>
