in the cluster, and it prefills the text area with the following query:
SELECT * FROM "<your-map-name>". You can execute the query by clicking
Execute Query button. Dropdown component supports textual search.
After a successful query execution, the contents of the Query Result, JSON View and History tabs are rendered.
