Hi ShaoFeng, thanks for the answer.
The issue is I DON'T want group by index column. I want to execute sql with
GROUP BY <constant>, like "GROUP BY TRUE" or "GROUP BY 1.1000001" which is
something that Tableau produces. And I don't know how to achieve this.
I run Kylin in version 2.6.2-hadoop3 (I have HDP 3.1) and Tableau I don't
remember, but I can get back this information later.
