Questions about SQL applied to Power BI.
Hi Pacopil48
I'm not sure what scenario the document you're looking at applies to. For example, if the data source is a database and the connection mode is not Import, some users may choose to transfer some complex operations to the data source and perform only simple operations in Power Query, because SQL itself has better data processing performance than Power Query. If the amount of data you need to process is not large, or the amount of data is large but the data conversion operations required are relatively simple, you don't really need to learn SQL. My suggestion is that you can first learn according to the Power BI learning path in the official document.
