Explore and visualize your data in the **Data Explorer**. For both InfluxQL and Flux, Chronograf allows you to move seamlessly between using the builder or templates and manually editing the query; when possible, the interface automatically populates the builder with the information from your raw query. Choose between [visualization types](/chronograf/latest/guides/visualization-types/) for your query.

## Explore data with InfluxQL
InfluxQL is a SQL-like query language you can use to interact with data in InfluxDB. For detailed tutorials and reference material, see our [InfluxQL documentation](/influxdb/latest/query_language/).
1. Open the Data Explorer and click **Add a Query**.
2. To the right of the source dropdown above the graph placeholder, select **InfluxQL** as the source type.
3. Use the builder to select from your existing data and allow Chronograf to format the query for you. Alternatively, manually enter and edit a query.
4. You can also select from the dropdown list of **Metaquery Templates**. Metaqueries show information about a database, such as.
5. Click **Show template values** to display the calculated values in the template.
## Explore data with Flux
Flux is InfluxData's new functional data scripting language designed for querying, analyzing, and acting on time series data. To learn more about Flux, see [Getting started with Flux](/flux/v0.7/introduction/getting-started).
> ***Note:*** Flux v0.7 is a technical preview included with [InfluxDB v1.7](/influxdb/v1.7). It is still in active development and many functions provided by InfluxQL and TICKscript have yet to be implemented.
1. Open the Data Explorer and click **Add a Query**.
2. To the right of the source dropdown above the graph placeholder, select **Flux** as the source type.
The **Schema**, **Functions**, and **Script** panes appear.
3. Use the **Schema** pane to explore your available data. Click the **+** sign next to a bucket name to expand its content.
4. Use the **Functions** pane to view details about the available Flux functions.
5. Use the **Script** pane to enter your Flux query.
* To get started with your query, click the **Script Wizard**. In the wizard, you can select a bucket, measurement, fields and an aggregate.
<img src="/img/chronograf/v1.7/flux-script-wizard.png" style="width:100%; max-width:400px; margin:2em 0; display:block;">
For example, if you make the above selections, the wizard inserts the following script:
```js
from(bucket: "telegraf/autogen")
|> range(start: dashboardTime)
|> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "cpu" and (r._field == "usage_system"))
|> window(every: autoInterval)
|> toFloat()
|> percentile(percentile: 0.95)
|> group(except: ["_time", "_start", "_stop", "_value"])
```
* Alternatively, you can enter your entire script manually.
6. Click **Run Script** in the top bar of the **Script** pane. You can then preview your graph in the above pane.
1. Click the **Data Explorer** icon in the sidebar.
2. Use the builder to select from your existing data and have the query automatically formatted for you.
Alternatively, click **Edit Query As Flux** to manually edit the query. To switch back to the query builder, click **Visual Query Builder**.
3. Use the **Functions** pane to review the available Flux functions. Click on a function from the list to add it to your query.
4. Click **Submit** to run your query. You can then preview your graph in the above pane.
## Visualize your query
Select the **Visualization** tab at the top of the **Data Explorer**. For details about all of the available visualization options, see [Visualization types in Chronograf](/chronograf/latest/guides/visualization-types/).
**To visualize your query**:
## Add queries to dashboards
