Amazon redshift SQL query to power bi dataflow

Hi Andrew_na_lang ,

You can use Redshift as a source directly on your dataflow, but it does not allow you to enter a custom query. 

Connect to an Amazon Redshift database in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

If you are looking to run a custom redshift query, you can use the ODBC connector. You will first need to download the relevant redshift driver on your machine, and then create a sytem DSN. You will then be able to access this dsn by the odbc connector in PowerBI.

Step-by-step instructions are available here :
Configuring an ODBC connection - Amazon Redshift

To use this source on your dataflow, you will have to first setup this ODBC source on your refresh gateway as a new source and then add it to your dataflow.

Connect to data sources for dataflows - Power Query | Microsoft Docs

More details about the ODBC connector can be found here :

Kind regards,
