Support for SQL the language...
- Anonymous6 years ago
Hey Anonymous
I'm going to answer your questions in order as best I can:
So they are asking for getting data using SQL 200 language is it supported? - The simple answer is no. Power BI uses Power Query like excel which uses the lanugage M. You can embed SQL language in M, but M is simple enough and similar enough to SQL this is not usually necessary. When you use "Get Data" from SQL you can use an SQL Query.
Can you call a stored procedure from Power BI? - Yes. Check out these links for more information on this:

2. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Use-SQL-Store-Procedure-in-Power-BI/td-p/20269
Can you do group by's using SQL language? - Check out these links:
