    Hi Dipankar0622 
    Thank you for being part of the Microsoft Fabric Community.
    Instead of using individual user credentials, use a dedicated service account or managed identity. This way, the Dataflow always uses the same pre-configured credentials stored securely (like in a secret manager), so the connection remains active even when control shifts between users. This method reduces downtime, enhances security, and eliminates the need to update credentials each time.

    If the above information is helpful, please give us Kudos and mark the response as Accepted as solution.
