Dataflow gen2 not loading date fields
Hi,
I have a dataflow g2 in a pipeline that loads data to a Lakehouse. Today I was working on my silver layer and noticed something really weird. All date columns are missing. First I thought it had something to do with the keyword "date". Then I noticed also CreatedAt columns were missing. Is this something others have noticed? Its not just in one table, it is missing in all of them. When I open the dataflow the columns are there, when I publish and refresh the dataflow it refreshes everything in the lakehouse but the date columns. I assume it's something of a mapping issue, but I can't change this.
Anyone who encountered this issue?
The solution is mapping everything manually. Lakehouse can't handle date/time/zone fields of dataflows. Fabric is buggy sometimes.

Hi ray_codex
- Yes, my be sometimes schema mapping b/w dataflow and lakehouse can get out of syncrnisations. So, try to refresh the schema mapping/importing the schema.
- Make sure that, schemadrift is enable in datflow settings.It allows the dataflow to absorb the chnages in the schema.
