Translate natural language questions into StackQL queries and execute them against cloud providers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Translate NL prompts into StackQL SQL using provider schemas
  • Execute standard operations: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, EXEC
  • Find and configure credentials, verify provider availability, and handle auth flows

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I query cloud resources using natural language instead of raw SQL?

This approach translates natural language prompts into StackQL queries using provider schemas, enabling you to query cloud resources without writing raw SQL. It executes standard operations like SELECT to retrieve data directly from configured providers.

Can I run SQL operations like INSERT or UPDATE across multiple cloud providers?

Yes, StackQL supports executing standard SQL operations including SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and EXEC across multiple cloud providers. It verifies provider availability and handles authentication to ensure operations run successfully.

What happens if I try to query a cloud provider without authentication configured?

When authentication is missing, the query enforces auth checks and guides you through the setup process. It verifies provider availability and prompts for necessary credentials before executing any StackQL queries against the cloud resources.

What is the best way to automate cloud infrastructure queries without managing provider-specific APIs?

Automating cloud infrastructure queries is best handled by translating natural language or raw SQL into StackQL operations. This abstracts provider-specific APIs, allowing you to execute SELECT or EXEC commands consistently across supported cloud platforms.

Does StackQL work with existing SQL statements or do I have to use natural language input?

StackQL supports both raw SQL and natural language input for querying cloud providers. You can provide direct SQL statements for precise control over operations like SELECT and UPDATE, or use natural language prompts to generate queries automatically.
