GitHub user klionsky123 edited a discussion: sqlalchemy & pandas don't work
together: 'Connection' object has no attribute 'cursor'
### Error
```python
UserWarning: pandas only supports SQLAlchemy connectable (engine/connection)
or database string URI or sqlite3 DBAPI2 connection. Other DBAPI2 objects are
not tested. Please consider using SQLAlchemy.
df = pd.read_sql(query, con=connection)
❌ Query failed: 'Connection' object has no attribute 'cursor'
```
df = pd.read_sql(query, con=connection)
### Reproducible Example
```python
pandas~=2.2.3
requests~=2.32.3
apache-airflow~=2.10.5
SQLAlchemy~=1.4.54
import pandas as pd
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
# Connection string
conn_str = (
"mssql+pyodbc://extl:xxx@serverIP/DB_name"
"?driver=ODBC+Driver+17+for+SQL+Server"
)
# Create the SQLAlchemy engine
engine = create_engine(conn_str)
# Sample SQL query
query = "SELECT TOP 1 * FROM dbo.country"
# Use SQLAlchemy's connection object to execute the query
try:
with engine.connect() as connection:
df = pd.read_sql(query, con=connection)
print(df)
except Exception as e:
print("❌ Query failed:", e)
```
### Next steps?
✅ pandas==2.2.3 and SQLAlchemy==1.4.54 are compatible with each other.
✅ They are also compatible with apache-airflow==2.10.5, which officially
supports SQLAlchemy>=1.4,<2.
So, I can't upgrade SQLAlchemy as apache-airflow~=2.10.5 will not work then.
What would you suggest?
