Create SQL Interface Query

Version 4.0.24.18

Create a SQL interface query.

This allows you to create a new SQL interface query that you can later run. Looker queries are immutable once created and are not deleted. If you create a query that is exactly like an existing query then the existing query will be returned and no new query will be created. Whether a new query is created or not, you can use the 'id' in the returned query with the 'run' method.

The query parameters are passed as json in the body of the request.
