 ### Save queries
 
-After selecting all the fields for your query, you can save it by selecting **Save query**. Provide a name and description to help identify it later. To view your saved and recent queries, select **Queries** — they will appear in a side panel where you can rename, duplicate, or delete any query.
-## Output formats
-
-Log Explorer output can be presented in different formats, besides JSON: JSON Lines (also known as NDJSON), CSV, and plain text. The plain text uses ASCII tables similar to psql's `aligned` output mode. Besides the convenience factor of not having to translate the format on the client side, JSON Lines, CSV, and plain text formats have the advantage of being streamed from the API. So for large result sets, you will get a response earlier.

-## Optimizing your queries
-
-All the tables supported by Log Explorer contain a special column called `date`, which helps to narrow down the amount of data that is scanned to respond to your query, resulting in faster query response times. The value of `date` must be in the form of `YYYY-MM-DD`. For example, to query logs that occurred on October 12, 2023, add the following to your `WHERE` clause: `date = '2023-10-12'`. The column supports the standard operators of `<`, `>`, and `=`.
