Column used in join expression is not a key column

ERR.DS_API.DB.CHYT.INVALID_SORTED_JOIN.NOT_A_KEY_COLUMN

When you use a CHYT connection, key columns of YTsaurus tables are significant.
In multi-table datasets, you can link tables (execute JOIN) only by key columns of joined tables.
To do this, the following requirements must be met:

  • All columns used in table links must be part of the key for the tables involved.
  • Keys of both tables must begin with those columns.
  • Columns must be listed in the same order in the keys of both tables.

Use one of the methods below to get around this problem:

  • Recreate the original tables and set the keys to meet the criteria.

  • Use, as your dataset source, an SQL query with GLOBAL JOINs that allow joining tables by non-key columns:

    SELECT * FROM left_table GLOBAL JOIN right_table ON (...) ....
