# Usage

Dashboards > Sql Export

- %(company_id)s allows to set in the query the company id of the user
- %(user_id)s allows to set in the query the user id
- for any created field with Sql Export Variables menu, you can use it with %(x_field_example)s syntax (Limitation for relational fields)

# Known issues / Roadmap

- Some words are prohibited and can’t be used is the query in anyways, even in a select query: - delete - drop - insert - alter - truncate - execute - create - update

See sql_request_abstract module to fix this issue.

- checking SQL request by execution and rollback is disabled in this module since variables features has been introduced. This can be fixed by overloading _prepare_request_check_execution() function.
- V16 : Restore export with parameters features.
