Apply a filter to data from Bigquery when navigating to the table
Hello,
I've connected to Bigquery using PowerQuery. When I try and connect to a table it's asking me to apply a filter on the date.
DataSource.Error: ODBC: ERROR [42000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (70) Invalid query: Cannot query over table 'xxxxxx.3000.sales' without a filter over column(s) 'date' that can be used for partition elimination
Details:
DataSourceKind=GoogleBigQuery
DataSourcePath=GoogleBigQuery
OdbcErrors=[Table]
How should I edit this formula to include this date filter?
Best regards
Bas
Right click Navigation in Applied Steps and choose "Insert Step after". Then add a custom step with a filter. E.g.
= Table.SelectRows(#"Previous Step", each [Merchant] = "testmerchant")Replae #"Previous Step" with the text that is generated by default when you do "Insert Step After" .

I have similar issue. After trying "Right click Navigation in Applied Steps and choose "Insert Step after", I could not see anything where I could add custom step with filter, but a item called "Custom1" created in "APPLIED STEPS". If I right click on "Custom1", there is nothig I can edit!
Not sure what I missed.
Best regards,

Hi Anonymous
Make sure you have the formula bar turned on. In PowerQuery go to VIEW and enable the checkbox for FORMULA BAR. You now see an extra bar where you can add the code.
Does that do the trick?
