Does ODBC Tableau for Azure Data Explorer have support to connect to external tables. I have these 3 tables I am able to query:

But in Tableau, I am unable to search and see the tables:

CodePudding user response：

While it seems the ADX external tables are indeed not listed, they can be referenced by a New Custom SQL.
Below is a demonstration on the publicly available cluster, Help.

Although in KQL external tables are referenced with a special syntax, e.g.:

external_table('TaxiRides')
| take 10

When using the SQL syntax, you refer to it as a regular table, e.g.:

select top 10 * from TaxiRides
