CartoDB SQL API to Layer

Question

How to use SQL API output to create a layer in a map?

I thought it could be achieved with createLayer passing the data directly, i.e. not with URL as second argument, but the data I am getting from SQL API has not the structure of a layer.

Any advice?

Answer 1

To create a layer without a URL is possible. It is in the section titled, "create a layer at runtime", here
