Bitquery IDE runs query every time you select one

When you click on a query in the IDE on the left-hand side under Private/Shared/Builder, it is executed automatically every time and costs Points unnecessarily. Is that intentional?

Is it possible to turn this behaviour off? For example, I would first look at the query and edit it if necessary before executing it.

You may fork the particular query in the Private/Shared/Builder sidebar as shown in the image below where I have tried to fork a query named Bitcoin Active Addresses by month.

forkedquery

And that won’t run the query and hence, you don’t have to be worried about losing points.

So there is no way to look at a query first? I have to fork it first and then go to edit mode?
Because some queries cost a lot of points, I don’t want to trigger them by mistake.

@gaurav does it cost you points if you just fork a query?

No. It doesn’t cost to fork a query
