  • [X] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this feature
  • [X] I am requesting a straightforward extension of existing metricflow functionality, rather than a Big Idea better suited to a discussion

Describe the feature

Suppose I don’t want to use metric and can only use dimension to add select fields, but this field will appear in groupby. Can you support adding fields only to select?

@UncleFB mind saying a bit more about the use case here? It sounds like you essentially want to query the underlying model using the semantic layer.
