Dataflow Gen2 refresh issue - Dynamics 365 entity to warehouse table

[pws_flick]

Hi All, 

I have created a Dataflow Gen2 which is picking up data from the 'account' entity in Dynamics 365. 

The M-Code for this query is as follows:

let
    Source = CommonDataService.Database(
        "xxxxxxxxx.crm6.dynamics.com", 
        [CreateNavigationProperties = null]
    ),

    // Grab the "account" table
    #"Navigation 1" = Source{[Schema = "dbo", Item = "account"]}[Data],

    // Keep desired columns
    #"Selected Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(
        #"Navigation 1",
        {
            "accountid",
            "primarycontactid",
            "primarycontactidname",
            "name",

However, whenever I try to publish this dataflow - it will generate this error when it tries to refresh (fails on the account_WriteToDataDestination step): 

account_WriteToDataDestination: There was a problem refreshing the dataflow: 'Couldn't refresh the entity because of an issue with the mashup document MashupException.Error: Expression.Error: The column 'Data Source Type' of the table wasn't found. Details: Reason = Expression.Error;ErrorCode = 10224;Detail = Data Source Type;Microsoft.Data.Mashup.Error.Context = User'. Error code: Mashup Exception Expression Error. (Request ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).

This seems to indicate that it's looking for a column named 'data source type' ??? I'm thoroughly confused. There is no column named this in the source table or the destination table... 

I have also tried setting the CreateNavigationProperties to 'true' / 'false' - but this gives the same error. 

Any help / guidance is greatly appreciated!

Out of curiosity - why are you enabling incremental refresh on a dimension table?

[pws_flick]

In this business, new accounts are added on almost daily basis - thus, I would only like to ingest new and updated accounts each day, rather than the entire 2.3 million+ each day

Thank you for the background information, that helps.

Oh, you're doomed.  It's called Incremental refresh for a reason. Data is expected to be immutable. If it isn't (like your "updated accounts" ) then Incremental refresh will not work for you, and you will end up with multiple versions of the same account across multiple partitions.   Instead you would need to implement your own differential refresh process, CDC or SCD2.
