Assigned Queries

The Assigned Queries page provides a centralized view for FinOps to track all queries assigned to team members for optimization, investigation, or follow-up action. This helps you see who is working on what, monitor team workload, and ensure expensive or problematic queries get fixed.

Why Assigned Queries?

From Finding Problems to Fixing Them

Finding expensive queries is just the beginning—someone needs to actually fix them. Assigned Queries creates a clear workflow: FinOps identifies costly queries, assigns them to the right Data Engineer with priority and context notes, then tracks progress until resolved. This ensures expensive queries don't get ignored and cost-saving opportunities turn into actual results.


Assigned Queries List

When assigned queries exist, they appear in a structured table with summary counts at the top.

Query Counts

Badges show how many queries are assigned by priority:

  • Total — Total number of assigned queries
  • High — High-priority items requiring urgent attention
  • Medium — Moderately important items
  • Low — Lower-impact or long-term items

These counts help FinOps users understand workload distribution at a glance.
