Dataflow Gen2 Destination: Columns Name

chris__1 — Thu, 24 Apr 2025 13:40:17 GMT

So I've been using a table in a Fabric WH for some months now which includes a column name "Customer No.".

Now I wanted to append from a differenct dataflow to that table and i get an error claiming this table has unsupported column names:

It is extremly unfortunate if such constraints are being added afterwards... and therefore breaking things that have been working!

yes, that "cannot contain spaces" restriction is a recent addition in the annoyance circuit.

please v-prasare , asking to "accept a solution" every 3 days is borderline spamming behavior and is counterproductive since people will disable e-mail notifications!

also: my comment was put under the labels "Show and tell" and "General Comment".

I was not seeking advise nor looking for a "solution" rather giving feedback that changing such basic table requirements will break things for your customers and like lbendlin did put it so nicely " is a recent addition in the annoyance circuit"!

I am under the impression that having as much threads as possible showing an "Accepted Solutions" (even when not applicable) is more important than using this channel as means to get feedback from your customers and users.
