Route 1: run ANALYZE TABLE ... REFRESH METADATA on the tables to have them added to the tables collection in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.

Route 2: Use CREATE VIEW to create a view for every data set to be exposed to MicroStrategy.  Views are added to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.

Hello Charles

Ok. We are trying to use Microstrategy reporting via Apache Drill . Because 
these are saved in files these do not show in microstrategy for us to access.
This is what we write inside Microstrategy to access tables in general

Select tables from information_schema.tables where table_schema in (‘dfs 
.tmp’,’dfs’ ,’sys’)

Is these any way that I can show the files in dfs.tmp , because the above sql 
is not able to pull the files that i create using the below create sql.

Create table dfs.tmp.tablename- I am writing this to create a table in dfs.tmp

Kindly advise

Best regards

HI Sandeep,
Thanks for your interest in Drill.  What you're describing is actually how 
Drill is supposed to work.  When you do a CREATE TABLE (CTAS) query, it is 
actually creating a file, usually parquet, in the location you specified. 
Therefore it doesn't show up when you do a SHOW TABLES query.

Best,
