Help Needed: Creating Sankey Diagram

I am trying to create a sankey diagram using the data below but when I try doing so all I get is a blank visual. Is my data formatted incorrectly or am I missing something?

 

I was able to use the example data from a youtube video and the sankey diagram worked fine then.

I am having the same issue. We have isolated the problem to data that is "live", so either loaded directly from SQL Server in the form of tables, or as a custom query from the same. 

 

When the data is imported as a CSV (same output as the custom query), the visual works as expected. 

 

This seems to be an issue with only this custom visual - other custom visuals are still working as expected. Is this visual pinging an address that would be blocked in a corporate setting? 

 

@mwasserman could you confirm if the visual works with a CSV?

I unsure about the answer to whether or not the visual is pinging an address but yes the visual does work with a CSV- thank you @corbusier !
