Gen2 Dataflow Issues: Missing Refresh Status and Notification Problems
Hi SAAR95 ,
You’re not alone this is a known behavior with Gen2 Dataflows, especially for CI/CD-enabled ones.
The workspace view doesn’t reliably show “Refreshed” or “Next refresh” for Gen2 items. This is a limitation rather than a misconfiguration on your side.Workarounds.
- Use Monitoring Hub or Run History.
These provide the most accurate status info for Gen2 refreshes.
Microsoft Docs – Monitoring Dataflows Gen2 - Email Notifications.
Unlike Gen1, Gen2 doesn’t send failure emails by default. You’ll need to set up a Power Automate flow (or similar) to get alerts on refresh failures.
Regards,
Akhil.- Use Monitoring Hub or Run History.
Hi SAAR95
We’re seeing the same behavior after moving to Dataflow Gen2 (incl. CI/CD/Git)
The workspace list view doesn’t always populate “Refreshed” or “Next refresh” for Gen2 items (especially CI/CD). For accurate status, use Monitoring hub or the dataflow’s Run history—those are the authoritative views.

Email notifications aren’t automatic like Gen1. For Gen2—particularly CI/CD dataflows—you need a notification workflow (e.g., Power Automate) to alert on failures. Community threads confirm the missing built-in email option for CI/CD Gen2.
