Fix a bug in dataflows: Using a parameter to reference a linked entity dataflow and/or workspace
Hi there, I've discovered a bug when using parameters to reference a dataflow and/or workspace in linked entities. It appears that when when I create a parameter to dynamically reference a dataflow and/or workspace in a downstream linked entity such as a 2nd dataflow, Power BI does to recognise that it belongs to the dynamically referenced workspace and/or dataflow. Please see here for screenshots: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Bug-in-dataflows-Using-a-parameter-to-reference-a-linked-entity/idi-p/1657495#M64265 It would help when we want to deploy dataflows through deployment stages by importing the JSON and not have to manually change the references each time. Cheers!

For me this is a bug, not an idea -- if the lineage view cannot identify the source of an entity, it should show this clearly (maybe with a "question mark" source) instead of just ignoring it.
