# Plan API version 5 - Query API
This page is about API that is available in **version 4.9.0** and above.
API can be called on all platforms.
This API requires `QUERY_API` capability.
See [APIv5](https://github.com/plan-player-analytics/Plan/wiki/APIv5#plan-api-version-5) for dependency information

- Executing Statements
## Obtaining QueryService
`QueryService` can be obtained like so:
```
try {
QueryService queryService = QueryService.getInstance();
} catch (IllegalStateException planIsNotEnabled) {
// Plan is not enabled, handle exception
}
```
## Checking that database is what you expect
Database schema might change due to optimizations or additions so it might be necessary to check if the schema matches what you need.
- [[Database Schema]]
You can check if a table exists like this:
```
boolean hasTable = queryService.getCommonQueries().doesDBHaveTable(tableName);
```
You can check if a table has a column like this:
```
boolean hasColumn = queryService.getCommonQueries().doesDBHaveTableColumn(tableName, columName);
```
Any method called in `CommonQueries` blocks the thread.
In order to perform queries in the correct SQL dialect, you might need the following code. Please note that H2 has MySQL compatibility mode engaged.
```
String dbType = queryService.getDBType(); // H2, SQLITE, MYSQL
```
## Performing queries
Queries can be done with `QueryService#query` method. Queries block the thread.
Here is an example of a completed query
```
String result = queryService.query(
"SELECT * FROM plan_users WHERE uuid=?",
(PreparedStatement) statement -> {
statement.setString(1, playerUUID.toString());
try (ResultSet results = statement.executeQuery()) {
return set.next ? set.getString("name") : null;
}
}
);
```
### Available pre-made queries
Some queries can be performed without the query method above, they are available with `QueryService#getCommonQueries`
Any method called in `CommonQueries` blocks the thread.
## Executing statements
Statements can be executed with `QueryService#execute` method.
Here is an example of a executed statement
```
Future<?> done = queryService.execute(
"INSERT INTO custom_table (uuid, value) VALUES (?, ?)",
(PreparedStatement) statement -> {
statement.setString(1, playerUUID.toString());
statement.setString(2, value);
statement.execute();
}
);
done.get(); // (Optional) Block thread until transaction was executed
```
### Note: Transactions
`execute` does not block the thread, because the SQL is executed on another thread concurrently.
If you would like to wait for the statement to execute you can call `Future#get()` to block the thread.
**Do not call `Future#get()` inside `execute` - This might deadlock the whole database due to blocked transaction thread!**
