# Select Queries
Select queries return raw Druid rows and support pagination.
```json
{
"queryType": "select",
"dataSource": "wikipedia",
"dimensions":[],
"metrics":[],
"granularity": "all",
"intervals": [
"2013-01-01/2013-01-02"
],
"pagingSpec":{"pagingIdentifiers": {}, "threshold":5}
}
```
There are several main parts to a select query:
|property|description|required?|
|--------|-----------|---------|
|queryType|This String should always be "select"; this is the first thing Druid looks at to figure out how to interpret the query|yes|
|dataSource|A String defining the data source to query, very similar to a table in a relational database|yes|
|intervals|A JSON Object representing ISO-8601 Intervals. This defines the time ranges to run the query over.|yes|
|filter|See [Filters](Filters.html)|no|
|dimensions|A String array of dimensions to select. If left empty, all dimensions are returned.|no|
|metrics|A String array of metrics to select. If left empty, all metrics are returned.|no|
|pagingSpec|A JSON object indicating offsets into different scanned segments. Query results will return a `pagingIdentifiers` value that can be reused in the next query for pagination.|yes|
|context|An additional JSON Object which can be used to specify certain flags.|no|
The format of the result is:
```json

"timestamp" : "2013-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",

} ]
```
The `threshold` determines how many hits are returned, with each hit indexed by an offset.
The results above include:
```json
"pagingIdentifiers" : {
"wikipedia_2012-12-29T00:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:13:47.830Z_v9" : 4
},
```
This can be used with the next query's pagingSpec:
```json
{
"queryType": "select",
"dataSource": "wikipedia",
"dimensions":[],
"metrics":[],
"granularity": "all",
"intervals": [
"2013-01-01/2013-01-02"
],
"pagingSpec":{"pagingIdentifiers": {"wikipedia_2012-12-29T00:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:00:00.000Z_2013-01-10T08:13:47.830Z_v9" : 5}, "threshold":5}
}
Note that in the second query, an offset is specified and that it is 1 greater than the largest offset found in the initial results. To return the next "page", this offset must be incremented by 1 with each new query. When an empty results set is received, the very last page has been returned.
