# Executing a search query

Efficiently executing a search query in Tellius involves the following steps:

1. Selecting the Business View
2. Construct the required query
3. Analyze the search results
4. Save to a Vizpad (to save the results)

Start by choosing the appropriate Business View. This sets the context for your query, ensuring that the search is tailored to the specific dataset you want to analyze. Next, type in or input a voice-based query in natural language as per your requirements.

Go through different sections of the search results to analyze them. Save the results to a Vizpad (if you want them to be saved for future use).

{% hint style="info" %}
Please note that the results of a search query will be stored only if they are saved to a Vizpad or Insight.
{% endhint %}
