Intro to Query Builder

The Query Builder, supported by the Carbon Arc Python SDK, is designed to deliver a flexible and intuitive experience for building powerful data queries. Users can easily create Entity and Insight pairs — for example, pairing Walmart with Credit Card Spend, or Netflix with Website Traffic — to unlock valuable analyses.

From there, you can set detailed filters in your Cart, including:

  • Spatial filters such as ZIP codes, DMAs, states, countries, or even national roll-ups
  • Temporal filters like daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly aggregations
  • Date ranges to focus on relevant time periods
  • More dimensions such as payment methods, subscription types, and other user-specific criteria
  • + many more depending on your framework

This flexibility makes the Query Builder a powerful tool for customizing, refining, and extracting the insights you need directly from the Platform.
