Power BI Connector for SendGrid

Build 24.0.9060

SELECT Statements

A SELECT statement can consist of the following basic clauses. You can access this statement by using the Odbc.Query function in the M formula language.

  • SELECT
  • INTO
  • FROM
  • JOIN
  • WHERE
  • GROUP BY
  • HAVING
  • UNION
  • ORDER BY
  • LIMIT

SELECT Syntax

The following syntax diagram outlines the syntax supported by the SQL engine of the connector:

SELECT {
  [ TOP <numeric_literal> | DISTINCT ]
  { 
    * 
    | { 
        <expression> [ [ AS ] <column_reference> ] 
        | { <table_name> | <correlation_name> } .* 
      } [ , ... ] 
  }
  { 
    FROM <table_reference> [ [ AS ] <identifier> ] 
  } [ , ... ]
  [ [  
      INNER | { { LEFT | RIGHT | FULL } [ OUTER ] } 
    ] JOIN <table_reference> [ ON <search_condition> ] [ [ AS ] <identifier> ] 
  ] [ ... ] 
  [ WHERE <search_condition> ]
  [ GROUP BY <column_reference> [ , ... ]
  [ HAVING <search_condition> ]
  [ UNION [ ALL ] <select_statement> ]
  [ 
    ORDER BY 
    <column_reference> [ ASC | DESC ] [ NULLS FIRST | NULLS LAST ]
  ]
  [ 
    LIMIT <expression>
    [ 
      { OFFSET | , }
      <expression> 
    ]
  ] 
} | SCOPE_IDENTITY() 

<expression> ::=
  | <column_reference>
  | @ <parameter> 
  | ?
  | COUNT( * | { [ DISTINCT ] <expression> } )
  | { AVG | MAX | MIN | SUM | COUNT } ( <expression> ) 
  | NULLIF ( <expression> , <expression> ) 
  | COALESCE ( <expression> , ... ) 
  | CASE <expression>
      WHEN { <expression> | <search_condition> } THEN { <expression> | NULL } [ ... ]
    [ ELSE { <expression> | NULL } ]
    END 
  | {RANK() | DENSE_RANK()} OVER ([PARTITION BY <column_reference>] {ORDER BY <column_reference>})
  | <literal>
  | <sql_function> 

<search_condition> ::= 
  {
    <expression> { = | > | < | >= | <= | <> | != | LIKE | NOT LIKE | IN | NOT IN | IS NULL | IS NOT NULL | AND | OR | CONTAINS | BETWEEN } [ <expression> ]
  } [ { AND | OR } ... ] 

Examples

  1. Return all columns:
    SELECT * FROM MarketingCampaigns
  2. Rename a column:
    SELECT [Subject] AS MY_Subject FROM MarketingCampaigns
  3. Cast a column's data as a different data type:
    SELECT CAST(SuppressionGroupId AS VARCHAR) AS Str_SuppressionGroupId FROM MarketingCampaigns
  4. Search data:
    SELECT * FROM MarketingCampaigns WHERE Id = '17693'
  5. Return the number of items matching the query criteria:
    SELECT COUNT(*) AS MyCount FROM MarketingCampaigns 
  6. Return the number of unique items matching the query criteria:
    SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Subject) FROM MarketingCampaigns 
  7. Return the unique items matching the query criteria:
    SELECT DISTINCT Subject FROM MarketingCampaigns 
  8. Sort a result set in ascending order:
    SELECT Title, Subject FROM MarketingCampaigns  ORDER BY Subject ASC
  9. Restrict a result set to the specified number of rows:
    SELECT Title, Subject FROM MarketingCampaigns LIMIT 10 
  10. Parameterize a query to pass in inputs at execution time. This enables you to create prepared statements and mitigate SQL injection attacks.
    SELECT * FROM MarketingCampaigns WHERE Id = @param

Pseudo Columns

Some input-only fields are available in SELECT statements. These fields, called pseudo columns, do not appear as regular columns in the results, yet may be specified as part of the WHERE clause. You can use pseudo columns to access additional features from SendGrid.

    SELECT * FROM MarketingCampaigns WHERE Pseudo = '@Pseudo'
