@SivaMani can you please share the error and the headers of the 2 tables.

@Anonymous,

 

Thanks for the reply. I found a temporary solution.

 

But, I'm getting this error when I use fields from the merged table,

 

Error Message:
OLE DB or ODBC error: [DataSource.Error] ODBC: ERROR [42000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (70) Invalid query: LEFT OUTER JOIN cannot be used without a condition that is an equality of fields from both sides of the join..
