We have been using Dataflows for months now. And currently we have the same issue since Sunday, 27 Oct. Dataflows that used to refresh in 10-15 mins started to Fail with Error: Refreshing an entity exceeded the 2 hour refresh limit.
I did rebuild and move the Dataflow but that did not help.

I have exactly the same behavior since this morning. A Data Flow which was refreshing fine for months, with a average duration of around 5 minutes, suddenly fails with 2h timeout. I'm curious that the failing entity is one of the simplest inside this data flow. Not much data, not much complexity compared to the other entities.
Other data flows are running fine, and even if i copy the failing data flow, remove everything but the failing entity and refresh the data flow, everything works fine and it takes only about 1 minute.
Data Source is SQL Server through on-premises data gateway.
