Help with Query through ODBC/Hive

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

@Kristofferaabo,

Uisng the ODBC connector in Power BI Desktop, you can input the query into SQL Statement textbox.
