How to Connect Apache Druid to Power Bi (Desktop/Service)
Dear all,
in our company we are using Apache Druid as a data storage. I would like to setup a data source and connect to our Druid Database.
Where do I start, what do I select as data source type do I take file or database? Since there is no dedicated option for apache druid. I found some simple connection online as an example, but where do I define this in the first place?
Cheers
let
Query1 = Json.Document(Web.Contents("paste_url:paste_port/druid/v2/?pretty",
[Headers=[#"Content-Type"="application/json"],
Content=Text.ToBinary(
"{

""dataSource"": ""paste_your_table"",

]
)),
totable = Table.FromList(Query1, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expand = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(totable, "Column1", {"version", "timestamp", "event"}, {"Column1.version", "Column1.timestamp", "Column1.event"})

Hi,
Start from a Blank query, go to Advanced Editor and paste your snippet there - but "pack some supplies" as there might be a long-ish way home if you haven't created a query before (and if your druid cluster is secured...) 😊
You mean "incremental refresh"?
P.S.: for further details on this "incremental refresh", please open another question - and please mark my previous reply as answer should you consider it answered your question 😊

maybe one additional question, is the incrmental update feature agnostic from the underlying system? i have managed to get it working with google big query, will it also work with Druid in general?
