Is it possbile to write a SQL query in PowerBI? 

 

 

Example

FROM table 

WHERE name = 'BOB' AND date > '2019-01-24' 

AND date in 
(SELECT MAX(DATE)

FROM table)
ORDER BY  name;

If you select advanced options when setting up a SQL data source, you get a box to enter the SQL Query in the "Statement" box.
