How to set values before SELECT statement in powerbi

Hello,

 

I am using PowerBI Desktop version and trying to connect Impala Datasource (Big Data). I am trying to set this value before my query execution, however this fails with following error as shown below. 

 

Can someone point me in right direction please? Thanks in advance!

 

--SET ALLOW_ERASURE_CODED_FILES=1;

--SELECT * FROM mydb.mytable LIMIT 10;  ---> sample query

 

Error:

Does Impala have a concept of views or SP?  Those can help you mask the issue and make Power BI believe it talks to a raw table.

Hi @lbendlin , Thanks very much for the response and feedback.

There is no native support for views and stored procedures in Impala. However this can be exposed via Hive and query through Impala. thanks!
