Don't display quick evaluation query runs in the history by default

Open p- opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I use the query history regularly to go back to older query runs (both MRVA and local runs) and compare them to newer runs. However, when I develop or debug a query I often use the "quick evaluation" feature. This sometimes leads to a rather bloated history with lots of "quick evaluation" runs that are not interesting. (I have to delete them manually to get a cleaner history back)

Describe the solution you'd like

One solution could be not display quick evaluation query runs in the history by default. E.g. they could be displayed via a menu point in the ... menu.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Another variant could be to just not record the history of quick evaluations (as an ephemeral-ness behaviour is somewhat implied in the name). Personally, I never needed to go back to the results of a quick evaluation.

@stonish I think this issue would be more appropriate for your team to look at.
