sys.pdw_nodes_dm_exec_query_plan (Transact-SQL)
Applies to: 
Azure Synapse Analytics
Returns the Showplan in XML format for the batch specified by the plan handle. The plan specified by the plan handle can either be cached or currently executing.
Note
In Azure Synapse SQL, adding white spaces in a query constitutes a query change that causes the query hash to be re-calculated and the previous cached execution plan not be reused.
Note
This syntax is not supported by serverless SQL pool in Azure Synapse Analytics.
