Queries for the Carbon DeFi Subgraph can be generated using The Graph's interactive explorer. The following explains how to interact&#x20;

### To Generate Queries

2. Click the folder icon on the right to open the explorer:<br>

3. **Select or deselect** variable names to adjust the query. \
   For example to see the latest trades and some of their relevant details, select **trades** and one or more variables below it. <br>

4. **Click** the **play button** to see an example of the results of your current query. Once satisfied, continue.
5. Copy the query into your code. \
   For example, in Python:

   ```python
   query = """

   {
     trades {
       sourceToken {
         symbol
       }
       targetToken {
         symbol
       }
       sourceAmount
       targetAmount
       transactionHash
     }
   }
   """
   ```
