Query Metadata Panel

The query metadata panel displays information about the query, data source, and the report. It details the measures and filters added to the query, as well as statistics revealing the number of columns, rows, cells and other metadata in the query.

This helps provide context to the user, and the statistics are useful in gauging the performance (speed) of the query.
