I want to load data daily from MySQL to Fabric Lakehouse using Dataflow.
My technique is to get the maximum DateCompleted and get the data from MySQL bigger than this value.
I have 2 queries in my dataflow. The first "PGW_Payment_Transactions_LH" calculates the Maximum Date/Time from DateCompleted Column from the table in Lakehouse.
The second query Loads the data from MySQL.
This is the Query I am using:
let
MaxDateCompleted = #"PGW_Payment_Transactions_LH",
Source = MySQL.Database("Server Name", "Database Name", [Query = "SELECT #(lf)id,#(lf)partition_id,#(lf)date_created,#(lf)date_completed,#(lf)country_code,#(lf)payment_provider_code,#(lf)payment_provider_type,#(lf)integration_service_id,#(lf)revenue_share_id,#(lf)provider_tran_id,#(lf)client_correlation_id,#(lf)payment_acct_num,#(lf)merchant_code,#(lf)merchant_name,#(lf)service_category,#(lf)merchant_correlation_id,#(lf)payment_type,#(lf)product_id,#(lf)product_desc,#(lf)subscription_id,#(lf)provider_subscription_id,#(lf)amount,#(lf)currency_code,#(lf)status,#(lf)provider_response_code,#(lf)verification_type,#(lf)verification_instruction,#(lf)verification_token, 'PROD' As SourceDb,#(lf)#(tab) DATE_FORMAT(NOW(), '%Y%m%d%H%m%s') AS ETLRunDate#(lf)FROM payment_transactions#(lf)#(lf)WHERE date_completed " > & MaxDateCompleted ])

Date.ToText - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
Make sure you format the text correctly. Ideally that should be in ISO-8601 format.
Your closing double quotes are in the wrong place too.
Change
date_completed " > & MaxDateCompleted ])
to
date_completed > "& MaxDateCompleted ])
