Hi,
I have a connection to our datalake via ODBC (hortonworks). This works great, I can see all the tables/schemes that I have been given access to etc.
I had some changes to come of the tables and our IT dept. wrote a query to me (believe its SQL), I can execute this query with no problem if I access the server through the HUE interface. BUt I'm not sure how I connect/execute this query in powerBI?
I want to be able to use this along with the other tables/schemes i pull from the datalake
Thanks!
Kristoffer
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Kristofferaabo,
Uisng the ODBC connector in Power BI Desktop, you can input the query into SQL Statement textbox.

Lydia
