[Yandex DataLens] Requested database column does not exist

ERR.DS_API.DB.COLUMN_DOES_NOT_EXIST

Nonexistent field used.

Possible causes:

  • A new field was added to the data source but the dataset has not been updated. To update the dataset, click Update fields.

  • When building a dataset from a ClickHouse® connection, an SQL subquery is used. If this is the case, set an alias for the selected fields.

    Here is an example:

    SELECT DISTINCT
      id as offer_id,
      upper(proposed_meta)
      FROM
    

    DataLens may incorrectly identify the upper(proposed_meta) field, so you need to set an alias for it:

    SELECT DISTINCT
      id as offer_id,
      upper(proposed_meta) as upper_proposed_meta
      FROM
    
  • When building a dataset, the SQL subquery makes an implicit reference to the selected fields (SELECT * FROM). To avoid an error, explicitly list the required fields in the SELECT clause.
