+title: Tekton Results - Storing and Retrieving Results
+---
+
+In the [last post](/posts/blogs/hey-tekton-results/), I described how to install
+Tekton Results on a Kubernetes cluster. In this post, we will see how to use Tekton
+Results to store the results of a PipelineRun and how to retrive them later.
+
+## Creating a PipelineRun/TaskRun
+
+Let us create a simple PipelineRun to see how Tekton Results works. Here is a simple
+PipelineRun that I created for this demo.
+
+- Create a PipelineRun YAML file.
+
+  ```sh
+  cat <<EOF > demo-pipeline-run.yaml
+  apiVersion: tekton.dev/v1beta1
+  kind: PipelineRun
+  metadata:
+    name: demo-pipeline-run
+  spec:
+    pipelineRef:
+      name: demo-pipeline
+      tasks:
+        - name: demo-task
+          taskSpec:
+            steps:
+              - name: demo-step
+                image: alpine
+                script: |
+                  echo "Hello World"
+  EOF
+  ```
+
+- Create the PipelineRun.
+
+  ```bash
+  kubectl apply --filename demo-pipeline-run.yaml
+  ```
+
+## Querying the Results API
+
+There are three ways to query the Results API. The simplest way is to use
+`tkn-results` CLI. You can also use `curl` or any other HTTP client as well as
+a gRPC client. I will go through all three methods. Before we start, we have to
+create a ServiceAccount and a ClusterRoleBinding to access the API.
+
+- Create a ServiceAccount for quering the API.
+
+  ```bash
+  kubectl create sa tekton-results-query -n tekton-pipelines
+  ```
+
+- Grant readonly permissions to the ServiceAccount
+
+  ```bash
+  kubectl create clusterrolebinding tekton-results-query \
+    --clusterrole=tekton-results-readonly
+    --serviceaccount=tekton-pipelines:tekton-results-query
+  ```
+
+- Create an access token
+
+  ```bash
+  export ACCESS_TOKEN=$(kubectl create token tekton-results-query -n tekton-pipelines)
+  ```
+
+- Expose the results API server, this will block so run in a separate shell.
+
+  ```bash
+  kubectl port-forward --namespace tekton-pipelines \
+    service/tekton-results-api-service 8080:8080
+  ```
+
+### Using `tkn-results` CLI
+
+We are not releasing the CLI yet, but you can install it using Go. You will need
+[Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) installed on your machine.
+
+- Install `tkn-results`
+
+  ```bash
+  GOBIN=${TKN_PLUGINS_DIR:-"${HOME}/.config/tkn/plugins"} \
+    go install github.com/tektoncd/results/tools/tkn-results@latest
+  ```
+
+- Query the API, pass `--insecure` flag if you are using a self-signed certificate. In place of `default` you can pass the namespace name. `-` means all namespaces.
+
+  ```bash
+  tkn-results list --insecure \
+    --addr http://localhost:8080
+    --authtoken $ACCESS_TOKEN
+    default
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below.
+
+  ```bash
+  Name                                                  Start                                   Update
+  default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be  2023-06-13 12:04:49 +0530 IST           2023-06-13 12:09:07 +0530 IST
+  ```
+
+- Similarly you can query Records for a particular PipelineRun or TaskRun Result.
+
+  ```bash
+  tkn-results records list --insecure \
+    --addr http://localhost:8080
+    --authtoken $ACCESS_TOKEN
+    default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below. Notice that there are two records, one for the PipelineRun and one for the TaskRun.
+
+  ```bash
+  Name                                                                                               Type                                    Start                                   Update
+  default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be/records/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be  tekton.dev/v1beta1.PipelineRun          2023-06-13 12:04:51 +0530 IST           2023-06-13 12:19:09 +0530 IST
+  default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be/records/64a0ab6e-9b90-4e5e-a072-e44d8ff27467  tekton.dev/v1beta1.TaskRun              2023-06-13 12:06:14 +0530 IST           2023-06-13 12:07:52 +0530 IST
+  ```
+
+- Finally you can get a single record too.
+
+  ```bash
+  tkn-results records list --insecure \
+    --addr http://localhost:8080
+    --authtoken $ACCESS_TOKEN
+    default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be/records/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below.
+
+  ```json
+  {
+  "name": "default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be/records/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be",
+  "id": "50b13d54-2eb0-4a45-8399-853f2d4ba028",

+    },
+  "etag": "50b13d54-2eb0-4a45-8399-853f2d4ba028-1686638949162394019",

+  "updatedTime": "2023-06-13T06:49:09.162394Z",
+  "updateTime": "2023-06-13T06:49:09.162394Z"
+  }
+  ```
+
+### Using `curl`
+
+Using curl is similar to using `tkn-results` CLI. You can use the same access
+token and the same API server address. The only difference is that you have to
+pass the access token as a header and provide the API path depending on what
+you want to query.
+
+- Query the results
+
+  ```bash
+  curl --insecure \
+    -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN"
+    -H "Accept: application/json"
+    https://localhost:8080/apis/results.tekton.dev/v1alpha2/parents/default/results
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below.
+
+  ```json
+  {
+  "results": [
+    {
+      "name": "default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be",
+      "id": "50b13d54-2eb0-4a45-8399-853f2d4ba028",
+      "uid": "50b13d54-2eb0-4a45-8399-853f2d4ba028",
+      "createdTime": "2023-03-02T07:26:48.972907Z",
+      "createTime": "2023-03-02T07:26:48.972907Z",
+      "updatedTime": "2023-03-02T07:26:54.191114Z",
+      "updateTime": "2023-03-02T07:26:54.191114Z",
+      "annotations": {},
+      "etag": "50b13d54-2eb0-4a45-8399-853f2d4ba028-1677742014191114634",
+      "summary": {
+        "record": "default/results/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be/records/dcb7926e-42e8-4338-ab7d-0b67e02389be",
+        "type": "tekton.dev/v1beta1.PipelineRun",
+        "startTime": null,
+        "endTime": "2023-03-02T07:26:54Z",
+        "status": "SUCCESS",
+        "annotations": {}
+      }
+    }
+  ],
+  "nextPageToken": ""
+  }
+  ```
+
+You can also use filters to query record for a particular (set of) PipelineRun
+or TaskRun. See the available filters [here](https://github.com/tektoncd/results/blob/main/docs/api/README.md#filtering).
+
+### Using gRPC
+
+You can also use gRPC to query the API. You can use the same access token. You
+will need to [install](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/command_line_tool.md)
+`grpc_cli` to query the API.
+
+- Querying using gRPC will need cert. Here is how to export them.
+
+  ```bash
+  kubectl get secrets tekton-results-tls -n tekton-pipelines \
+    --template='{{index .data "tls.crt"}}' | base64 -d > /tmp/results.crt
+  export GRPC_DEFAULT_SSL_ROOTS_FILE_PATH=/tmp/results.crt
+  ```
+
+- List available services
+
+  ```bash
+  grpc_cli ls --channel_creds_type=ssl \
+    --ssl_target=tekton-results-api-service.tekton-pipelines.svc.cluster.local \
+    localhost:8080
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below.
+
+  ```bash
+  grpc.health.v1.Health
+  grpc.reflection.v1alpha.ServerReflection
+  tekton.results.v1alpha2.Results
+  ```
+
+- List the Results
+
+  ```bash
+  grpc_cli call --channel_creds_type=ssl \
+    --ssl_target=tekton-results-api-service.tekton-pipelines.svc.cluster.local \
+    --call_creds=access_token=$ACCESS_TOKEN
+    localhost:8080
+    tekton.results.v1alpha2.Results.ListResults 'parent: "default"'
+  ```
+
+  You will get a response like below.
+
+  ```bash
+  connecting to localhost:8080
+
+  results {
+    name: "default/results/7afa9067-5001-4d93-b715-49854a770412"

+      type: "tekton.dev/v1beta1.TaskRun"
+      end_time {
+        seconds: 1677742039
+      }
+      status: SUCCESS
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+Similar to curl you can pass filters here as well.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+In this post, we saw how to use Tekton Results to store the results of a PipelineRun
+or TaskRun and how to query them later. Tekton Results is still in alpha, we are
+working on adding more features to it. If you have any feedback or feature request,
+please feel free to open an issue [here](https://github.com/tektoncd/results/issues)
+or reach out to us on [Slack](https://tektoncd.slack.com/). Thanks for reading!
