Which dataflow am I connected to?

[b2wise]

Very simple question:

I have many dataflows with multiple tables per dataflow. When I connect to it from desktop it doesn't use the dataflow name, just a string of code. Two months later I'm trying to troubleshoot and need to refer to the dataflow table but I have no idea where it is.

How do I figure it out?

Thanks in advance!

@az38 I wish there was an easier way but this works.

Thank you!

Hi @b2wise 

I think you can find an appropriate GUID dataflow in its URL:

https:// app.powerbi.com/workloads/dataflows/author/capacityObjectId/GUID/dataflowId/<YOUR_DATAFLOW_GUID>

\or you can use Power BI REST API
