IBM DB2 Accelerator command run before query

Hi,

 

Is there a way to execute DB2 IDAA command SET CURRENT QUERY ACCELERATION=ALL and then SQL query within Power BI?

Please does anybody know whether and how you can enable the IBM DB2 Accelerator in the Advanced Editor of Power Query? I have the following:
let
Source = DB2.Database("Server", "Database", [HierarchicalNavigation=true, Implementation="Microsoft"]), Query="SET CURRENT QUERY ACCELERATION=ELIGIBLE",
XXXXX = Source{[Schema="xxxxxx"]}[Data],
XXXXX = XXXXXX{[Name="DB2Table"]}[Data]

There is no syntax error and I do get the data loaded into Power BI Desktop from the On Premises DB2 table. But I do not know if it Query="SET CURRENT QUERY ACCELERATION=ELIGIBLE" is actually doing something. How do I know? 

Should I see some kind of code in the native Query? 

Thanks for your replies!

Hi @econlt,

Based on my test, I am afraid you could not achieve this feature currently, the Power BI Desktop could not execute the statement "SET CURRENT QUERY ACCELERATION=ALL ".
