Error message "RequestValidationFailed" when attempting to modify a copy job by the owner
- 9 months ago
Hi SimoneZier ,
Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community.
Thank you tayloramy for the prompt response.
This is an issue with Fabric Copy Jobs: even after you “Take Over” a job, the system still keeps the original creator tied to the job internally. Because of that, certain changes-like switching from append to overwrite-can only be made by the person who originally created the job.
That’s why your new jobs (where you are the creator) work, but taken-over jobs fail with RequestValidationFailed.
The only reliable workaround today is to recreate the copy job under your own account. Microsoft is aware of this limitation and a fix is expected in a future update.
Hi SimoneZier,
Before making changes, you should take over the copy job. Go to the settings page, and then if you are not the owner there will be a take over button:
Once you take over, then you are the owner and can make all changes.

Thanks tayloramy for your answer. I have already taken over the copy job and I am the owner but it still doesn't work 😞 Any other ideas?

Hi SimoneZier,
Do you have permissions on all the connections that are used?
Are there any gateway connections being used?
