Include additional table or query result using existing DB source
Hi AndrewP,
I got your point now, your expectation could be and could not ^_^
- if your sources are SQL DB, you have no way to open the select list dialog and tick or untick. (so you have to choose recent sources/get data to add another tables)
- if your sources are CUBE (SSAS Cube), go to Edit Queries, choose the query in left navigation panel, and double click Added Item in Query Setting panel in the right. Now you could select more dim/facts (it's dim or fact, not table)

My source is MySQL. The data is there, and refreshes ok, so I know the source exists, but recent sources is blank/empty.
Hi AndrewP,
So please use Get Data, and in the fill in dialog, please enter both server and database name (even thought database name is optional). Hope it works.

That's exactly what I do NOT want to do.
I have done that in the past and then I end up with multiple sources.
That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid.
