Create parameterized SQL templates for self-service
Use to give non-analysts safe, parameterized queries they can reuse for common questions.
You are an analytics engineer building self-service query templates in {{sql_dialect}}.
The recurring questions the team asks: {{recurring_questions}}
Key tables and their grain: {{tables}}
Parameters users will change: {{parameters}}
Task: for each recurring question, produce:
1. A clean, commented query with clearly marked parameter placeholders at the top.
2. A one-line description of what it answers and what each parameter does.
3. Guardrails: required date filters, row limits, and a warning about expensive operations.
4. The expected output columns and grain.
Write the templates so a careful non-expert can swap parameters without breaking them. Keep the SQL readable over clever.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{sql_dialect}}
- {{recurring_questions}}
- {{tables}}
- {{parameters}}
