Last month, we introduced creating a table from the local file using importer. Previously, creating a new table required you to set up a storage account such as HDFS, S3, or ADLS to upload data. The list of SQL dialects was also restrictive, with no support for Apache Phoenix. Now, creating a table is even easier. Just drag and drop a CSV file on the table listing, and Hue automatically creates a SQL table for you!

You can try this feature in the latest Hue version or at demo.gethue.com.


For feedback, questions, or suggestions, feel free to comment here or on the Forum and quick start SQL querying!

Onwards!
