Query folding for Redshift
Community SupportHi Anske,
In the link, it didn't mention that the Redshit supoort query foldering. Most data sources that have the concept of a query language support query folding. These data sources can include relational databases, OData feeds (including SharePoint lists), Exchange, and Active Directory. However, data sources like flat files, blobs, and web typically do not.
In addition, in the Power Query Editor window, it is possible to determine when a Power Query query can be folded. In the Query Settings pane, when you right-click the last applied step, if the View Native Query option is enabled (not greyed out), then the query can be folded. You siad that the option is greyed out, so I think Redshift doesn't support it.

For all the other people trying to find out, the answer is, Redshift does not support query folding, unfortunately.
The other thing is, when using power BI service, the range of IP adresses is too long to whitelist for your Redshift cluster.
My advice would be, consider using another front-end tool when your data is in Redshift :-).
