Clear old Data source option in Dataflow

Hi All

 

When I change Datasource for a query from one database to other vendor database, it keeps the connections in Lineage view of Dataflow.

 

In Desktip, I just clear such old connections from Data source settings. It is not available same as Desktop. 

 

Is it a known issue and planned to include in upcoming changes for Dataflows?

 

Thanks!

      Thanks Ankit for looking into it!
      Currently I am doing this to force it as work around:-

      • Change the Data source and validate
      • In Project Options - Unselect Gateway and click ok. This will break queries Data source connections.
      • Then go back and reselect Gateway used by new data source. This recreates connections and remove old data source connection.

      It will be better to include option same as PBI Desktop to remove it directly instead of work around.

        Hi abpgupta 

         

        Yes, I follow the same. There are some key changes coming around in next semester not sure if this would be there or not. Maybe support team can better answer this if this is in their plan or not.
