Good evening!
My organization has supplied me with a view-only account for SQL Server that means I can query data in whatever way I like but I am not able to crete views or stored procedures.
The tables in a db I get data from to PBI are updated daily at some time between 7.30 and 12.00. In order to know when the tables are finished updating there is another table that basically says if Table X is up to date for todays date.
My reports are deployed on a Report Server and I want to update them asap after the tables in the db are updated. I have permission to create refresh schedules here.
Given my limitations in doing anything on the server side, is there any way to acheive this? Is there a way, either in Power Query or pure SQL that can makea query continue only if the result of another query is satisfactory (ie. the update table says Table X is updated for today)?
