Power BI Dataflow: This step would be evaluated outside the data source

When I read more, it has to do with Query folding and it seems that the icon tells me there is No Folding happening. I wanted to know if any of my data gets exposed in this case and if this is a possible security problem? 


  • Nothing gets exposed, because the processing is happening in the Power BI Service rather than in the data source.  Depending on how fast your source is this may have a performance impact either way.
