DataSource.Error: Microsoft SQL: Cannot resolve collation conflict...

Dear community, 

I am facing the follwing issue:

data source = snowflake

error occurs after pivoting the table

Error: Data Source Error : DataSource.Error: Microsoft SQL: Cannot resolve collation conflict between "Latin1_General_100_CI_AS_KS_WS_SC" and "Latin1_General_100_BIN2_UTF8" in add operator for DISTINCT operation. DataSourceKind = <ccon>SQL</ccon> DataSourcePath = <ccon>.\cdsasqlcache;db....


Do you have any ideas?

You are trying to mix case insensitive data (on the left) and case sensitive data (on the right). Your SQL server does not allow that unless you specifically overrride the collation restriction in your query.
