Dataflow gen2 in deployment pipelines
The dataflow gen2 has been listed as preview feature in the deployment pipeline.
however, I don't see its still compatible to be moved in a deployment pipeline.
Anyone knows when this will be available?

Hello,
Will this limitation be removed in a future release? This is a major problem because the main purpose of the dataflows is to transform data in pipeline orchestration.
- Orchestrating a refresh of a Dataflow Gen2 with CI/CD and Git support isn't possible in Fabric data pipelines.

This seems to have been addressed in a recent announcement. We can save the dataflow ge2 as dataflow (CI/CD) - that will allow us to integrate them with GIT and also invoke from the pipeline.

Thank you for the response. We are already at the end of January, hope to get the release/update in a couple of days now.
Also, I do not see the option below too
Once the CICD is enabled, and once we are able to use the dataflow gen2 in a deployment pipeline, I hope that it will support existing dataflow gen2 as well, and not just the ones newly created with this checkbox?

Orchestrating a refresh of a Dataflow Gen2 with CI/CD and Git should be supported in Fabric data pipelines.

I am hitting the same issue. How are people actually deploying DFG2 resources to multi-stage environments via pipelines currently? Or is it just that nobody is doing it because it's not possible?
- Gpop13Advocate IV
Hi Stinkys - The DFG2 are still not supported in depl pipelines. But DFG2 CICD versions are.
I did try that approach but the biggest issue I faced was even if the DFG2 is deployed to next stage, all the destination settings point to the source stage. Example, if in a DFG2, Query1 writes to a lakehouse table in dev env, after its deployed to Test, this setting will still be the same and NOT pointing to corressponding Test lakehouse.
This was a very manually work for me.
In the first go, I recreated all the DFG2 in all stages, updated the target connections accordingly. Now whener there is a change to existing query, I manually update (advanced query) in each env (I know this is not the best solution but closest to an easier approach I could have)
