Impala Connection SQL Support

I’m trying to establish whether the PBI Impala datasource supports the use of a SQL statement.

 

The UI doesn’t appear to provide an option to specify SQL, but wondering if it’s possible via M syntax in the advanced editor (again no docs)

 

This is certainly possible via the Impala ODBC driver, so I’m wondering why not via native?

@wrathbon,

It doesn't support to write SQL statement via M or UI when using Impala connector, about this issue, you can submit a feature request in Power BI ideas forum.


Regards,

Lydia
