Not sure what detail needs to be added.  This is obviously a widely used RDBMS.

Good point, MySQL ranks second more popular than MS SQL Server..

Looking forward for In-db addition, basic queries can already be prepped as push through and

there already is an R package for accessing Mysql from R...  https://www.r-bloggers.com/accessing-mysql-through-r/

So, I have found that there is INDB support for MySQL, and I'm attempting to use it, but I'm plagued with syntax errors if I use any INDB tool other than a SELECT. Sample tools, formula... everything I've tried on a very simple connection all result in a syntax error. 

I'm using a native MySQL 8 driver (that I got on Alteryx's driver site (which I think directed me to mySQL directly)); I also have a version using the Simba driver. Either way, I get the same error: 
"Error: Connect In-DB (11): Error SQLPrepare: [MySQL][ODBC 8.0(a) Driver][mysqld-5.7.12]No database selected" I see this error in a INDB Browse tool.

Of course I have tested using the browser with a normal input tool; that works fine. I have also tested the query in a SQL window--that works fine too (nut it is a different driver, unfortunately). 

That mysqld-5.7.12 makes me itchy--is it looking for a MySQL 5 driver?

Does anyone know why I can't use INDB functionality within MySQL?
