Inline comments:
In `@config/backstop/data_view_queries.json`:
- Around line 962-963: Update the Geography query definition’s stringId to
3.geography.fullName and fieldName to fullName so makeDataViewQuery produces
fullName as the first column.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/DataViews/index.tsx`:
- Around line 217-218: Update the successful save promise chain near
reloadQueries and handleCloseQueryEditor to reset runtimeFields before
reloadQueries runs. Preserve the existing reload and close behavior while
ensuring the reloaded definition.fields is no longer overridden by the prior
runtime sort configuration.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/DataViews/queries.ts`:
- Around line 124-129: Configure newest-first ordering for all default Data
Views: update dataViewDefaultFieldBlacklist and generated default fields in
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/DataViews/queries.ts to retain one
audit timestamp as a hidden descending sort field; add the same hidden
descending timestampCreated or timestampModified field to each stored default in
config/backstop/data_view_queries.json; and update the generated-default
assertion in
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/DataViews/__tests__/queries.test.ts to
require that audit timestamp ordering.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/QueryBuilder/Results.tsx`:
- Around line 154-158: Update the refresh effect around fetchResults and the
offsets calculation to request totalCount again for each refresh generation,
then apply that refreshed count together with the returned result pages. Ensure
canFetchMore, the header count, and pagination use the new count while
preserving refreshes of all currently loaded offsets.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/QueryBuilder/ResultsWrapper.tsx`:
- Line 36: Update QueryResultsWrapper so the onResults callback is preserved
when constructing newProps and forwarded through useQueryResultsWrapper to
QueryResults; do not destructure it away before the remaining props are passed
onward, ensuring Data Views can update result ordering and select the initial
record.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/QueryBuilder/useQuerySplitView.ts`:
- Line 40: Update the split-view selection logic around rawIsSplit and
toggleSplit so that whenever split view is active, no row is selected, and
results become available, the first result is selected automatically. Ensure
this runs both when splitViewByDefault initially enables split view and when
results load after the user toggles split view.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/QueryBuilder/Wrapped.tsx`:
- Line 626: Update the explicit execution path around runQuery('regular',
fields) so it always serializes the current field state, including the first
sort change, instead of falling back to the stale query.fields when saveRequired
is false. Keep the pure field serializer always available and separate from the
save-required optimization, using the existing getQueryFieldRecords flow or its
equivalent.
In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/lib/components/Toolbar/Query.tsx`:
- Line 124: Update the QueryListDialog deletion handler to reconcile deletions
with the active backendFilter('name').caseInsensitiveContains(searchFilter):
only decrement data.totalCount when the deleted SpQuery matches searchFilter, or
reload the filtered collection instead. Keep displayed rows and paginator range
consistent when excluded queries are deleted.

Testing instructions
- Open the Data Views menu.
- Select a table that does not have a custom Data View query.
- Verify that the query being executed includes all unhidden fields.
- Select a row in the results.
- Verify that the corresponding form opens in the right panel.
- Switch the orientation and verify that the form opens in the bottom panel.
- Select a second row.
- Verify that a temporary record set is displayed.
- Select multiple rows.
- Verify that the newly selected rows are added to the record set.
- Verify that you can navigate through the records in the record set.
- Modify a field on the form that is also displayed in the query results table.
- Save the form.
- Verify that the change is reflected in the query results table.
- Verify that a record can be deleted.
Data View Query Configuration
- Open the Data Views menu.
- Click the pencil icon next to one of the table names.
- Verify that the Query Builder dialog opens.
- Add a field and/or customize the query.
- Save the changes.
- Verify that the changes have been saved.
- Click the table name and verify that the correct query is executed and the expected results are displayed.
Data Views App Resource
- Go to User Tools → App Resources.
- Open the Data Views resource.
- Verify that you can select a table from the table list on the left.
- Verify that you can collapse the table list.
- Verify that you can search for a table using the search field.
- Verify that tables with a custom query have a green dot displayed next to their name.
- Select a table with a custom query.
- Verify that you can edit the query and save the changes.
- Switch between the Visual Editor and JSON Editor.
- Verify that the query remains consistent between the two editors.
- Save the resource.
- Verify that the changes have been saved.
User-Level Data View Override
- Create a Data Views resource at the user level.
- Create a custom Data View query for one of the tables.
- Save the user-level resource.
- Open the Data Views menu.
- Select the table with the user-level custom query.
- Verify that the user-level query overrides the discipline-level query.
- Verify that the results displayed correspond to the user-level query.
Everything looks good! I was a little confused at first because editing a query in the data views overlay creates a user app resource which was overriding my collection-level resource, but that is just my error. Very nice!

Remove the extra separator space.
Division uses " | " while the related aggregators use " | ". This adds an unintended extra gap in rendered values. Use the single-space separator.

Move the table === undefined guard below the useMemo calls.
Line 184 returns before the three React.useMemo calls at Lines 186, 190, and 198. This calls hooks conditionally. If table changes between undefined and a table, React throws a hook-order error. The react-hooks/rules-of-hooks lint rule also reports this as an error, so lint will fail.
The memos do not need table: makeDataViewQuery receives tableName, and fields derives from definition. Move the guard after Line 201.

Does Jest 30 throw an error when a beforeEach or afterEach hook returns a non-Promise value?
💡 Result:
Yes, Jest (including version 30) throws an error if a beforeEach or afterEach hook returns a non-Promise value [1][2][3]. Jest explicitly disallows return values from hooks and tests that are not a Promise or undefined to ensure consistent handling of asynchronous code [1][4]. This behavior was established in previous versions to prevent common bugs, such as accidentally returning a value from a test or hook when it was not intended to be asynchronous [1]. Consequently, if a hook returns any value other than a Promise (or undefined), Jest will fail the test and throw an error indicating that the hook must return a Promise or undefined [5][1].

In Jest 30.3.0, the jest.useRealTimers() function returns the jest object, which allows for method chaining [1][2]. It does not return a Promise [1][2]. This behavior is consistent with its documentation in the official Jest API reference, which explicitly states that it "returns the jest object for chaining" [1][2].
Citations:

jest.useRealTimers() returns the Jest object. Jest 30 requires hooks to return undefined or a Promise, so this hook can fail before its assertions run.

Gate the split-view controls behind the query execute permission.
Lines 136-145 render both toggles unconditionally. QueryBuilderResults returns null when the user lacks /querybuilder/query execute permission, so the results pane never appears. A user with only the queryBuilder tool permission — a combination that hasAccess in Wrapped.tsx allows — sees two controls that do nothing.
The adjacent QueryLoanReturn block already follows this convention, and hasPermission is imported in this file.

Guard row selection against non-numeric result IDs.
loadedResults[rowIndex][queryIdField] as number is a TypeScript cast only. For series (smushed) or selectDistinct queries, the first column can be a comma-separated string, for example "1,2,3". The row click then stores that string in selectedRows and passes it to handleSelected. The split-view record preview receives an invalid ID.
The nearby code already treats this case specially: isDistinct at Line 447 disables QueryToForms and CreateRecordSet for the same reason. Apply the same guard here.
🛠️ Proposed guard
onRowSelected={(rowIndex): void => {
- const id = loadedResults[rowIndex][queryIdField] as number;
+ const rawId = loadedResults[rowIndex][queryIdField];
+ if (typeof rawId !== 'number') return;
+ const id = rawId;
setSelectedRows(new Set([id]));
handleSelected?.([id]);
lastSelectedRow.current = rowIndex;
}}Related to the earlier review comment on ResultsTable.tsx about record-list controls. That fix excluded clicks on button elements, so a click on any other cell of a series row still reaches this handler.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Replace the 200 ms polling loop with a result-arrival signal.
Line 67 starts an interval that only stops when selectFirstResult() succeeds. Two reachable cases have no exit:
- The user opens the query builder with
splitViewByDefaultenabled and does not run a query.resultsRef.currentstaysundefined, so the interval polls for the whole page lifetime. - A query returns zero rows.
findnever yields an id, so the interval keeps polling.
The loop also overrides user intent. QueryBuilderResults clears the selection in its onClose handler (setSelectedRows(new Set())). This effect then re-selects the first row about 200 ms later, so closing the preview does not persist.
resultsRef is a mutable ref, so React cannot observe it. Please expose a results-arrival signal instead — for example a results version counter incremented by QueryResultsWrapper, or an explicit onResultsLoaded callback — and select the first row from an effect that depends on that signal.
🔧 Sketch of the suggested direction
- React.useEffect(() => {
- if (!isSplit || selectedRows.size > 0 || selectFirstResult()) return;
- const interval = setInterval(() => {
- if (selectFirstResult()) clearInterval(interval);
- }, 200);
- return (): void => clearInterval(interval);

+ if (!isSplit || selectedRows.size > 0) return;
+ selectFirstResult();
+ }, [isSplit, selectedRows.size, selectFirstResult, resultsVersion]);Add resultsVersion to the hook parameters and thread it from the component that owns result loading.
If a signal is not practical in this PR, please at least cap the retries and skip the retry when results are loaded and empty.

Row Selection
- Select a row in the results.
Clicking the checkbox will add that record to selection, but clicking anywhere to the right in that row will remove currently selected records and select only that one. Query Builder allows clicking anywhere in the row to add that record to current selection, which should be matched here.

Data changes on Records vs Results
- Modify a field on the form that is also displayed in the query results table.
- Save the form.
- Verify that the change is reflected in the query results table.
- The change is not always reflected in a clear or timely way. It can cause a bit of lagginess, but it edits are shown in results eventually.
- Records are re-ordered in the query when changes to records are made though no changes to the query (i.e., sort pref) are made. For example, in the CE query, I added a selected an option for the sampling method field on two records. After the changes were saved, the records were ordered alphabetically by the sampling method value in the results. Changes to data on the records should not affect the ordering of results without a change to the query definition itself.
Screen.Recording.2026-09-08.at.2.38.18.PM.mov
Deletion Issues
- deleting a record will de-select records that are currently selected and select only the first one in the results.
Screen.Recording.2026-09-08.at.2.42.09.PM.mov
- deleting a subview from a record moves that record to the top of results.
Screen.Recording.2026-09-08.at.2.43.20.PM.mov
App Resource
- The Data View Queries resource is added to the user level for the user that opens/uses data views first. I had to add the resource to the discipline level.
- I expected this resource to include JSON/dot for queries for default data view tables (i.e., CO, CE, Agent, Accession, etc.).
- Show all tables checkbox is included but all tables are shown. We should limit table list to only custom ones or remove option
- Show all tables checkbox moves up with search results. Should be stationary at the bottom.
Screen.Recording.2026-09-08.at.2.46.18.PM.mov
Misc (not crucial but good for UX)
Can we please add a default query for each table included in the data views dialog? Loan and Gift include no unhidden fields and are thus blank upon selection. I mention this below in the App Resources section of my review, but I think these default query definitions should also be included in the DataViewQueries app resource.
