Hi everyone,
Understood there are many limitation in Direct Query. And also I find it impossible but I guess I encourage my self to post this question ->
How can we achieve SUMMARIZE without the loose of full Direct Query mode ? is there a workaround ?
Thanks,
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @amitchandak
Thank you very much. Just what I need, never knew it before.
I want to use it to create some lookup table (master table) from my FactTable. Just now in Power Query, I put the reference and use Group by, and it works and even the "aggregated table" still consider as a "Direct Query"
Many thanks,
