Possible to import *NESTED & REPEATED COLUMNS* from BigQuery into Qlik Sense?

BigQuery supported tables with nested and repeated columns.  I tried to import data

from BigQuery into Qlik Sense that with nested and repeated columns and it looked messed up.

Anyone successfully done this?  Or perhaps it is known to be not supported?

 

Thanks,

 

Chris

What do you mean by repeated columns?

I don't know if the last message went through so I'm repeating it again..... Imagine a CustomerOrder SQL table with multiple instances of a "product" column, one for each product in the ecommerce order.  Furthermore, each of the product column values might have nested values like product_quantity, product_price, product_shipping, etc.  I tried to pull BigQuery data into Qlik Sense using these BigQuery features and it looks like it got messed up.

Can you please paste query with one filed how it is loading, I have same schema before in Big query and I simply used * to pull the all fields. But want to see how your Rest is capturing and which JSON code is generating when it comes to Qlik?

I created a video which shows the BigQuery sample data and the JSON output
I get
when I create the QlikSense BigQuery connection and import the data.
Hopefully
this provides all you need if you don't mind taking a look at this desktop

I don't have an idea on this, I understand your requirement but it is different that what i handled. I am afraid whether you can achieve this. But, let's see if @Vu_Nguyen can help
