sql_queries:sql-parameters,sql_queries,sql-parameters,Named parameters,"Datasette has special support for SQLite named parameters. Consider a SQL query like this: 
             select * from Street_Tree_List
where ""PermitNotes"" like :notes
and ""qSpecies"" = :species 
             If you execute this query using the custom query editor, Datasette will extract the two named parameters and use them to construct form fields for you to provide values. 
             You can also provide values for these fields by constructing a URL: 
             /mydatabase?sql=select...&species=44 
             SQLite string escaping rules will be applied to values passed using named parameters - they will be wrapped in quotes and their content will be correctly escaped. 
             Values from named parameters are treated as SQLite strings. If you need to perform numeric comparisons on them you should cast them to an integer or float first using  cast(:name as integer)  or  cast(:name as real) , for example: 
             select * from Street_Tree_List
where latitude > cast(:min_latitude as real)
and latitude < cast(:max_latitude as real) 
             Datasette disallows custom SQL queries containing the string PRAGMA (with a small number  of exceptions ) as SQLite pragma statements can be used to change database settings at runtime. If you need to include the string ""pragma"" in a query you can do so safely using a named parameter.","[""Running SQL queries""]","[{""href"": ""https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/761"", ""label"": ""of exceptions""}]"
