Hello
I need to launch a query to another database with the data obtained in another table.
Example:
1) Fill with SQL the Data Table
2) Create a new Table with column customer
Now I neeed to create a SQL query to another database and server with Customer in (COLUMN) the only idea the only idea I can think of is to pass it to ',' join. And then pass it as a parameter in an SQL IN
'9556','288'
Is there any other way?
Can you help me make a ',' and pass it by parameter?
I can't do a merge query since there is a lot of data
Thanks

Hi @sebasjuniper1,
I would recommend Power Query.
I think, if the Power Query Query Folding is not able to combine the data on Source Layer, there will be no better way.

Hi @mwegener
Thanks for you reply
I don't understand why you tell me to use power query. What do you mean?
Thanks
Hi @sebasjuniper1 ,
In my opinion, it is better to use rudimentary power queries than to generate technically complex SQL queries.
But you have found your solution. I wish you success. 🙂

Hi! @mwegener
Can you explain the better solution or a web when i can learn.
I'm very interested to use "correctly" the power bi
Thanks
Hi @sebasjuniper1 ,
If you want to merge data from two data sources, create one query per data source and merge them using the dialog box.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-shape-and-combine-data#combine-queries
Power Query should determine how the data could merge most efficiently and if necessary send filter values to the source.
