<!-- Source: https://docs.redpanda.com/cloud-data-platform/reference/sql/sql-statements/show-execs.md -->

The `SHOW EXECS` statement displays currently running execution tasks across the cluster. This statement is only available to the superuser.

> 📝 **NOTE**
>
> This statement is not case-sensitive. `show execs`, `Show Execs`, and `SHOW EXECS` all produce the same result.

## [](#examples)Examples

```sql
SHOW EXECS;
```

> 📝 **NOTE**
>
> `SHOW EXECS` is equivalent to `SELECT * FROM system.execs`. You can query the `system.execs` table directly to filter or sort results using `WHERE` and `ORDER BY` clauses.
