Takeover dataflow

Hi,

 

When some one take over the dataflow, the person who takes over the dataflow has to re-enter the credentials again.

Is there any way around this?

In our organization datasource credentials are not shared with everyone.

 

Thanks,

John

      Thank you so much. What I found is, when you add developers to the connection of the dataflow as admin, then when the developer takes over the dataflow, he or she can just revalidate the credentials from power query online and there is no need to re-enter the credentials. Thanks, John

    We use service accounts with non-expiring passwords for our dataflows and store the credentials in an encrypted password manager.
