# Execute a SQL Query — MySQL

Botize method — `mysql.query` (action).

Executes an SQL query on a remote MySQL database. Allows using placeholders to reference dynamic fields safely and prevent SQL injections.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `query` *(string)* — SQL Query

It also accepts repeatable field groups, with these prefixes: `name_*`, `value_*`. These are composite components (buttons, filters, keyboards); the trailing number is set by the user as they are added.

## Output variables

Data this step makes available. Reference them in later steps with the double-brace tag.

- `{{sql_results}}` *(array)* — SQL Response
