Editing files in uses Code Editor. You can edit a variety of file types, and when you edit .sql or .py files you can then link these to your SQL Script and Python Pushdown components in your orchestration pipelines to run those scripts. Code Editor is powered by the Monaco Editor, which also powers Visual Studio Code and other editors across the web. Code Editor supports basic syntax colorization and works with the command palette in .

​
Create files to edit

The following file types can be created within and then edited in Code Editor:
  • .sql
  • .py
To create .sql or .py files:
  1. In the Files panel, click the + icon.
  2. Choose what file to create:
    1. Python script (.py)
    2. SQL script (.sql)
This will situate the newly created file outside any folders. To create a file inside a folder, click the three dots … alongside that folder and then click Add → Python script (or other type of file). Creating a new Python script or SQL script will open that new script in Code Editor.

​
Edit files

If the repository you have connected to a project contains any of the following files, you can edit them in Code Editor: .sql files can be used in the SQL Script component and .py files can be used in the Python Pushdown component in your orchestration pipelines.
We are working to add support for editing .json files.
All the file types in this list can be imported to and exported from .

​
Rename, move, and delete files

You can rename, move, and delete any files in your project.
