Append two tables using left antijoin
- 1 year ago
workmonitored as a rule of thumb and best practice, do transformation/data preparation as upstream as possible, and as close to the source.
if you can do this in an SQL server then better to do it there so that it can be used for other reports/projects as well instead of doing it in Power BI.
Hope this helps.
workmonitored well there is always a decision to make, you can test both approaches (since you have both solutions) and go from there. Not sure why there is schedule dependency on SQL, you will create a view which will prepare the data, and then Power BI will connect to that view, in this case, there is no schedule on the SQL side, or maybe I'm not fully sure about your setup.

Thanks. The data comes from a REST api resource. It has two call signatures. One that are active and one that's not. That's why I have to refresh the active data once a day or so. Hence the schedule....
