Error when getting data using SQL statement from Snowflake?

I'm trying to bring data into my Power BI model from Snowflake using a SQL statement. I've entered the Server, Warehouse, and Database along with the SQL statement, but it keeps returning the error message below.

This is the SQL statement.

select os.*,oa.* FROM PRODUCTION.MARKETING.DIMENSONS_ORDERSSUMMARY OS
inner join PRODUCTION.MASTER_DIMENSIONS.DIMENSIONS_ORDERAPPOINTMENTS oa on oa.order_id=os.fk_order_id and oa.location_type=os.location where os.FK_ORDER_ID is not null and oa.status_=1

Can anyone help me understand what is causing this?

Hello @ERing ,

 

This is giving error while connecting. You are selecting everything from both the tables (os.* and oa.*) and most probably "Field ID " is present in both the table. I would suggest selecting required columns only with corresponding reference like oa.order_ID as Order_ID, os.location as Location etc.

I hope this helps . 

 

Did I solve your problem, if yes please mark this as solution.

 

Cheers

That is normally the error if you're trying to create a column which name already exists? Are you building the query in the query editor from scratch  or just editing the source applied step?

I am using the "Get Data" option.

What I meant was is that an existing query and you're simply editing the connection or a totally new one without additional steps other than the source and navigation?
