BigQuery Connector for write custom SQL Query to filter Date and join multiple tables

Hello Experts, 

 

I am trying to write a custom query in BigQuery connector, in order to join multiple tables and set up a date filer, but could find where in PowerQuery to write it.     I can't load the seperated tables themselved because they are too big (over 100GB). 

 

Select * 

FROM BIGQuery.Table1

LEFT JOIN BigQuery.Table1.Field A = BigQuery.Table.Field 2

WHERE BIGQuery.Table1. Data >="2019-10-01"

 

Can anyone help me ?

Hi @bubbletao 

You can create a ODBC data source for the BigQuery, then use ODBC connector in Power BI Desktop and write SQL statement by expanding "Advanced options".
