Dataflow Gen2 - Fails to write data

Hi

 

I need to open this again and I hope to get answers...

 

In my Dataflow Gen2 I want copy 8 tables from an external source into a Fabric Warehouse. Flow outputs all columns as text, target tables contain only text columns. The yellow marked tables have approx 80'000 records. The green ones < 1'000 records.

 

After 8 hours, the Dataflow fails and suggests to reduce complexity.

 

In case 80'000 records are too complex for a Dataflow Gen2, is there an alternative option?

 

Thanks

Christian

Hi, thanks for your Feedback @miguel - I created a support ticket but am waiting for 2 days now and did not get a reply...

 

@v-cboorla-msft 
I ran the huge flow and reduce the number of records to 11 mio - that worked. Therefore I doubt that this issue is related to firewalls or proxy!?

Please share your case number with us here and ping us if you don't hear from a support engineer by the end of the week.

Hi @miguel

Update from my side:

 

It is possible, to load the data into the Lakehouse. At least for these small to medium files it worked.

 

I am still running another Flow that is supposed to write 50 Mio records. That - so far - did not succeed loading to lakehouse...

Hi @webchris 

 

Welcome to Fabric Community and thanks for posting your question here.

 

As I understand you are trying to load data from external source to Lakehouse using Dataflow Gen2. The below documentation might help you. 

Please refer to this link: Link1 

 

Hope this helps. Please let me know in case of any queries.

Hi Christian,

Please reach out to our support team so they can do a more thorough investigation on why some of these refreshes fail.
