Recommending query parameters based on the results of automatically generated queries

Abstract:

Systems and methods are disclosed for generating queries based on a portion of a query that is entered in a user interface. The system can identify a token query parameter from the query entered in the user interface and use the token parameter to generate one or more other queries. The other queries can include query commands that return information or characteristics about the data that is to be searched. Using the results of the one or more queries, the system can provide one or more recommended query parameters for the user to include the query entered in the user interface.
