thanks bryan & bill! yes, I was using GQL because I wanted to query
via the data viewer. the KEY('mykeystring') on the right-hand side
not working was throwing me off. that's good to know that it works in
the shell.

Audrey,
If for some reason, you need to use GQL to lookup by key string
instead of using get() like Bryan suggested, you can use KEY
('mykeystring') instead of the raw string on the right-hand side of
your __key__ comparison. Full documentation is here:

You don't actually need to use GQL, just use:
db.get('mykeystring')
