Quick BI:QueryDataService

Last Updated:Oct 26, 2026

Calls an API created in Data Service.

Note

This API has been deprecated. We recommend migrating to quickbi-public(2022-01-01) - QueryData for enhanced functionality and continued support. While the deprecated API remains temporarily accessible, no further updates or bug fixes will be provided.

Operation description

Before you begin

You have created an API in the Data Service of Quick BI. For more information, see Data Service.

Limits

  • The Data Service feature is available only to Professional Edition users.

  • When you invoke a Data Service API, the timeout period is 60 seconds, and the queries per second (QPS) limit for a single API is 10.

  • If row-level permissions are enabled for the dataset referenced by a Data Service API, the request may be blocked by the row-level access policy when you invoke the API.

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.
