Hello everyone.
I'm beginner and I'm learning to use PBI for my company.
I don't understand how I can use Direct Query with ODBC.
My goal is to connect three tables with millions of rows and I want to use a dynamic filter that use parameters on Power BI Desktop. I want to use these filters in a sql query ( by Bind to parameter option).
Thank you for your help.
Best regards.
Andrea
