Created Data Flows in Service. Connected in pbix but the objects are empty

‎11-26-2019 06:50 AM

I have created a Data Flow based on Adventureworks in power BI Service. Im now trying to connect up in Power BI Desk top but when I do all the objects say that they are empty.

 

In service when you are in Query Editor you can see all of the data. Am I missing something here.

 

Im in the latest Version of Power BI

@DebbieE after you create the dataflow (it is a single word), did you refreshed the dataflow?

Yes, I have definitely refreshed the Entire Dataflow. I did  it in Power Query Editor and after I saved and closed. I can see all the data in Service (Power Query Editor) but when I connect to the Data Flow in a my pbix File all the tables are empty

@DebbieE that is not data refresh, that is just a preview, to refresh the data, do following, you can either refresh from dataflow on top bar and click refresh button or click ... next to dataflow and in popup menu, select refresh
