Hello. I am trying to figure out how to execute my query and just checking if it logs. I try to run it but it’s not logging anything. I tried putting it in my MainActivity,kt but it does not work. I am using Android Studio and I am developing an Android App. Please help me I am very new to kotlin and coding

Hi 👋 that sounds about right. Maybe try catching any exception to see if something wrong happened?

```kotlin
try {
  val response = apolloClient.query(GetRoutesQuery()).execute()
  Log.d("LaunchList", "Success ${response.data}")
} catch (e: Exception) {
  Log.d("LaunchList", "oops", e)
}

```

Hello, thank you for responding.

I figured out why the Logcat was not displaying any logs; it was because I was using BlueStacks as my emulator. Unfortunately, there are still no signs of query being executed.

Your `LaunchList()` symbol is grayed out up there. Maybe make sure you’re calling it from another @Composable function?
