Thanks for assistance

Currently, the build-in Amazon Redshift connector doesn't support writing query to retrieve data (like SQL Server connector). Please submit a feature request on idea.

 

If your query takes long time to run, I suggest you use DirectQuery mode. 

 

Reference:

Connect to Amazon Redshift in Power BI Desktop
