Dataflow Gen 2 : Lakehouse connector doesn't work

Hello,

It's been days since I try to use the Lakehouse connector with a dataflow gen2. When I try to select the lakehouse I want to connect to, the cursor goes round and round for minutes and I get this error :



Do you know if I need to do some complementary configurations to resolve that issue please ?


Notes : Both Lakehouse and dataflow originate from the same workspace; I use a trial Fabric

    Hello,

    Thank you for your help.

    I tried these recommandations but it was still not working.
    So I reached the support and after some verifications it was said that I can't use these gen2 dataflows since I am using a guest account. This is not mentioned in the official documentation but seems like an issue that has been reported before.

    Hi Joh24 

     

    Thanks for using Microsoft Fabric Community.

    Apologies for the inconvenience that you are facing here.

    As I understand that you are encountering a connection issue with the Lakehouse connector with a dataflow Gen2 in Microsoft Fabric.

     

    To diagnose the cause of the connection error and establish a successful connection, please review these troubleshooting steps:

    Temporary glitch : Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can sometimes fix connection problems. This is because it removes temporary files that might be outdated or causing conflicts. Try it, then restart Fabric and reconnect to the Lakehouse.

    Review Authentication Types : Ensure compatibility between the authentication method you've chosen for the Azure Blob Storage connector is compatible with both the Copy Activity and Dataflow Gen2 activities.

    Please refer for more details : Set up your Lakehouse connection.

    Check the Gateway Configuration : For successful data transfer, confirm that the firewall on the server running the on-premises data gateway allows outbound traffic on port 1433 (TCP) to the following endpoints: *.datawarehouse.pbidedicated.windows.net, *.datawarehouse.fabric.microsoft.com, *.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com

    For more details please refer : Set new firewall rules on server running the gateway

     

    I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further questions.

     

    Thanks.
