don't know why it can not find the exis connection (MichelleSQL) . for example below ,
2. from Dataflow Gen2 , if i need add other tables in the future I can't find which way can import from same data source ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @MichelleTW729 ,
To your second question, to add other tables from the same data source in Dataflow Gen2 within Fabric Data Factory, you can follow these steps:
Open your existing Dataflow Gen2 in Fabric Data Factory.
In the Power Query editor, you can add new tables from the same data source by selecting the data source again and choosing the additional tables you need.
If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.

Hi @MichelleTW729 ,
I can't reproduce your problem, I performed a test of your same requirement and I can select the connection I already have in gateway.
This is my connection, please check that the server name and the database name entered when connecting to the data source in Dataflow is the same as configured in the connection.
If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.
