CubeJS default applies the Group By clause when we run any query in it.

For example below is my JSON query for employee Cube:

{
  "dimensions": [
    "Employee.date",
    "Employee.state",
    "Employee.id"
  ],
  "timeDimensions": [],
  "filters": []
}

When I run above JSON query in CubeJS it will run below SQL:

SELECT
  `employee`.updatedAt `employee__date`,
  `employee`.state `employee__state`,
  `employee`.EmpId `employee__id`
FROM
  DEMO.Employee AS `employee`
GROUP BY
  1,
  2,
  3
ORDER BY
  1 ASC
LIMIT
  10000

For reference below is Employee Cube that I have :

cube(`Employee`, {
  sql: `SELECT * FROM DEMO.Employee `,
  title: `Employee`,

  measures: {
    count: {
      type: `count`
    }
  },
  dimensions: {
    id: {
      sql: `EmpId`,
      type: `string`
    },
    date: {
      sql: `updatedAt`,
      type: `time`
    },
    state: {
      sql: `state`,
      type: `string`
    }
  }
});

What will be the JSON query that I need to create if I expect below SQL :

SELECT
  `employee`.updatedAt `employee__date`,
  `employee`.state `employee__state`,
  `employee`.EmpId `employee__id`
FROM
  DEMO.Employee AS `employee`
WHERE
  `employee`.updatedAt ` BETWEEN '2019-01-01' AND '2019-05-01'
LIMIT
  10000

OR

Is there any way to remove Group By clause from the SQL query generated by CubeJS itself.

There's ungrouped query property since 0.10.62 for that: https://cube.dev/docs/query-format#query-properties. In your case following query can be used:

{
  "dimensions": [
    "Employee.date",
    "Employee.state",
    "Employee.id"
  ],
  "timeDimensions": [],
  "filters": [],
  "ungrouped": true
}
