Getting empty table on PBI Desktop Dataflow

Hi Everyone,   I setup my dataflow fine on PBI Server, and I see the data and I'm able to edit it.   I'm able to find the dataflow in PBI Desktop and navigate, but when it loads the table is empty....

      Hi

       

      when you are editig your data in Dataflow you will see the following

       

       

      Right?

       

      Then you click on Save and Close 

      Then appear a message; "We are validating your query ......."

       

      Then  you have to close the editing session clicking on Close  (X Close)

       

       

      at this point making a connection in Power Bi Desktop

      - Get Data from Power BI dataflow

      - Select the checkbox for the file you wanto to connect

      - click on the icon Refresh at your right (inside the red line)

      and it should work

       

       

      Regards

        Thanks for the suggestion.  I just tried as you mentioned but still no data.  I get all the fields that I added, just not the data within them.   I have no problem pulling from datasets, it's just dataflows
