izetex opened a new issue #3336: Unable to directly create table from query ( feature request) URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/3336 This is a feature request I really like the idea of SQL editor embedded in Superset and like the idea of table.slices However the way how they are related in UI makes very hard to operate them ### Superset version Superset 0.19.0 ### Expected results Table is created from query with the name of query ### Actual results 1) Need a lot of unnesseary steps 2) No direct way to create a table from query 3) Inconsistency around saved queries - unnamed queries are not 'named' 4) No way to manage table from query view. For example, adding a new result column does not automatically add column to table, and i have to manually add it. ### Steps to reproduce 1) Go to SQL editor and compose a query 2) Save it. The first issue here is that the Tab for query is NOT renamed to the name i gave a query. However, if i open a query from Saved query view, the same query appears with the correct name. 3) Click Visualize on results. Here there is another inconsistency - the name of data source again does not reflect the name of saved query. Too many steps, and they are not evident. The direct way of creating table (through "new table") does not save time, as i have to manually generate all columns If you have such a great instrument as SQL query, why not use it to manage tables? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
