# Creating a query

[Queries](https://docs.tukanmx.com/queries) let you customize the data you want to get from a table.

With queries, you can sift through the dataset and pull out only the data you need, exactly how you need it.

Things to consider about queries:

* Queries can only have a single table associated to them. You can't have multiple tables within one query.
* Whenever the dataset has an update, your query should too. To receive a notification straight to your inbox, you should subscribe to the dataset.
