Hello
Newbie here
I would like to know how to view the SQL syntax behind a power bi visual specifically joins.
Many Thanks
Charlie
Solved! Go to Solution.
you can see tge psudo sql code :
download dax studio .
open dax studio
connect to your power bi file ( make sure that your file is open on the pc ) .
go to performance analyser .
and click on the visual you want to inspect its sql code. ( click on 2 ) >
copy the code from here ; using copy query,
paste it into dax studio . ( be sure to click on server timings and query plan ) and then run the query in dax studio,
you will have the sql code in the server timings paanel .
let me know if this helps.
