Refresh query when parameters update

Currently when you change parameter values the query doesn’t update until you execute it again. This can be somewhat confusing, specially with dropdown parameters, where nothing happens after you pick a value.

The main reason for this was to avoid running a query before the user updated all the parameter values (in case there is more than one).

Some ideas for solutions:

• Execute the query when the parameter value is updated. Add some debounce (that resets when the user “touches” another parameter?) to let the user update other parameters before running the query.
• Add some sort of “Apply” button next to the params, so it’s clear you need to click on it. Maybe even add some indication on it when the params are changed (like we do for the save button).
• Add a “Pause execution” toggle, that allows you to pause query refresh in case you want to update multiple parameters.

Any other ideas?

We had a discussion around this and we’ll modify it in the following way:

We’ll add an “Apply” button to each modified input field that needs to be clicked in order to re-execute the query.

• The button will only appear if you modified an input.
• Shift Click will Apply all the modified parameters.

@alisha17 usually we close issues that are already in master. If you’re asking if it will be addressed in the current version, then probably not. Current version is soon to be released. It will probably make the cut into the next one.
