BUG: VNET Gateway Issue

Hi chriscooper71 ,

From the error message, please try to change the data type to nvarchar(max).

So the problem I have with that is it works with a normal gateway. The data source is a Synapse Delta table and the PowerBI data set  just loads tables.

This issue just started Saturday 4/15 but was working before that. Here's a definition of the Delta Lake Table that is now throwing an error. Wondering if a change was made in the VNET code or deployment of something new over the weekend.

Hi v-yanjiang-msft ,

We are facing the same issue with Synapse tables, while trying to refresh the data in PowerBI, since yesterday.

Below is the error snippet :-

,{"code":"DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingErrorMessage","detail":{"type":1,"value":"Microsoft SQL: The size (8000) given to the convert specification 'nvarchar' exceeds the maximum allowed for any data type (4000)."}},{

This worked fine until last weekend. Could you please check and let us know as this is impacting our production refreshes.

Thanks,

DN

DhananjayN v-yanjiang-msft I agree with DhanajayN this worked last week fine. Does not work since Saturday 4/15. It's against parquet delta tables for us.

chriscooper71 v-yanjiang-msft . Was there any update on the service over the weekend which is causing this? Could you please let us know the next steps?

Hi chriscooper71 ,
