How to use BYOQ
On the BYOQ page click in the dsl query input box and start creating a query
Typeahead will help with creating connections or filters as the query is being typed out (it can be configured off)
In this case I started from a generic-vnf with a specific filter and selected a few elements directly connected to it and ran the query
The results can be seen below in card format
We have the option to view the output in tabular format
As well as visual graph format
You can pinch/zoom & drag/drop in the visual view and double clicking an item brings up its details in a modal
The user can access the syntax help documentation from the accordions
