**Pandas Query Component** 

  This component helps the users to get data as per the entered query. 

#### Steps to configure the component:

i)            Drag and Drop the Pandas Query component to the Workflow Editor.

ii) The transformation component requires an input event (to get the data) and sends the data to an output event.

iii) Create two Events and drag them to the Workspace.

iv) Connect the input event and the output event to the component (The data in the input event can come from any Ingestion, Reader, or shared events).
