Possible to view the query used to configure a dataset?

‎11-20-2019 10:28 AM

We have some old datasets that were created by developers who no longer work with us, and we're trying to identify the source of a particular field named LoginDate. I cannot find this in the database that the dataset is supposed to be getting that data from, so I'd like to know if it's possible to view the query used to build the tables in the dataset?

@Anonymous in query editor, select the table and you can see underline data source and also table name or view and also the columns. It should be pretty straight forward.

Thanks @parry2k I would have thought as much but I don't see a query editor anywhere... Note this is a Power BI online report and the "Owner" is a security group in Azure AD.
So I guess the question is where does one find query editor?
