Quick BI:QueryData

Last Updated:Nov 14, 2025

Calls an API that was created in DataService Studio.

Operation description

Prerequisites

An API must be created in DataService Studio in Quick BI. For more information, see DataService Studio.

Limits

  • DataService Studio is available only for the Professional Edition.

  • The timeout period for a DataService Studio API call is 60 s. The queries per second (QPS) for a single API is 10.

  • If you enable row-level permissions for a dataset that is referenced by a DataService Studio API, the row-level access policy intercepts the API calls.

Try it now

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

Required

Description

Example

ApiId

string

Yes

The ID of the API in DataService Studio. For more information, see DataService Studio.

f4cc43bc3***

UserId

string

No

The user ID in Quick BI. For more information about how to obtain the user ID, see QueryUserInfoByAccount.

Note

This parameter specifies the identity of the user who uses DataService Studio. You can use it with the row-level and column-level permission configurations of the dataset.

Important

If you do not pass this parameter, or pass an empty string or null, the user ID of the owner of the current Quick BI organization is used by default.

Conditions

string

No

The filter conditions for DataService Studio. Pass the conditions as key-value pairs in a map-type string. The key is the name of the request parameter, and the value is the value of the request parameter. Keys and values must appear in pairs.

Note:

  • If the operator of a request parameter is set to Enumeration Filter, the value can contain multiple values. In this case, the value must be in the format of a JSON list. For example: area=["East China","North China","South China"]

  • For dates, use the following formats based on the date type:

    • Year: 2019

    • Quarter: 2019Q1

    • Month: 201901 (with a leading zero)

    • Week: 2019-52

    • Day: 20190101

    • Hour: 14:00:00 (minutes and seconds are 00)

    • Minute: 14:12:00 (seconds are 00)

    • Second: 14:34:34
