## Types

### SqlDashboardBlock

Represents a single query and visualization pane within a SqlDashboard. Each block contains a SQL query (sqlQuery) that runs against the Benchling data warehouse, along with a BlockVisualization that defines how the query results are displayed (as a chart, table, heatmap, etc.). Blocks are ordered by index within their parent dashboard and have a name and description for identification. SQL Dashboard Blocks enable users to build interactive analytics dashboards by combining multiple query-driven visualizations on a single page.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `description` (string, optional)
- `id` (string, optional)
- `index` (integer, optional)
