Hi ,
Can someone help me guide through to start with update the Drill

Hi Divya,
Would be great to add to the docs. First step is to gather the info in a JIRA
ticket. Then, someone (thanks for volunteering) can update the various tables

Hi Dave,
As it turns out, improving the detail in function documentation is a

You can use the sqlTypeOf() function to learn the answer to your question:
SELECT sqlTypeOf(cast(1 AS
