Incremental refresh with appended queries
Hello all!
I have two tables (A and B) coming in from two different servers. They are identical in terms of their column names, number of columns, data types etc.
A is huge and requires an incremental refresh policy set up on it.
I now have to update the data model by including table B by appending it to table A.
How do I go about reinstating the incremental refresh?
-Do I append A and B and then set the incremental refresh policy?
-Do I append the tables as a new query and then set the policy?
-Can I keep the refresh policy on A, and then append B as a new query?
I have tried the first two senarios and both gave me the "Unable to determine if M query can be folded" warning. Could it still work despite the query folding issue?
Many many thanks
Hi HB13 ,
Apply incremental refersh on A and disable query A load to power bi model. Then append A to B. Load B.
The same problem was solved in this thread.

Neither of the above? How about doing a UNION in DAX?

'Enable load' must be turned on in order to toggle on the incremental refresh for a table. Are you Toggling it on first, then unchecking 'Enable load' in Power Query afterwards?
