    Hi pedro_oliveira ,

     

    Thanks for the reply from NandanHegde .

     

    I was able to reproduce your error.

     

    I tried to find the difference between this dataflow and other dataflows that can take over properly, and I found out that it's because the owner of that dataflow forgot to republish the data after processing it in the dataflow and setting the destination.

     

    When the owner of the dataflow publishes, the data is written to the warehouse in the destination, and then I can take over the dataflow.

     

    I found out that without a destination set, I can't take over the dataflow either.

     

    Try my solution and feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.

  • You must have at least contributor access within the workspace and seems you might be just having viewer access is my guess. Can you plz confirm your access level

      Hello! 

      I have admin access to this workspace. I was able to take over all the other Dataflows within this workspace.

      This works. I reactivated the user's account and was able to open the dataflow and publish it (it failed, though). Then the option to open the Settings wasn't greyed out anymore, but when I click on it, it doesn't load anything: 

       


      Anyway, I was able to export the dataflow to a file, so I guess this works.
