Gen2 Dataflow Issues: Missing Refresh Status and Notification Problems
Our team is currently migrating data pipelines from Gen1 to Gen2 dataflows in MS Fabric. While Gen2 has some advantages, we've encountered several frustrating issues that are impacting our workflow. ...
Hi SAAR95 ,
You’re not alone this is a known behavior with Gen2 Dataflows, especially for CI/CD-enabled ones.
The workspace view doesn’t reliably show “Refreshed” or “Next refresh” for Gen2 items. This is a limitation rather than a misconfiguration on your side.Workarounds.
- Use Monitoring Hub or Run History.
These provide the most accurate status info for Gen2 refreshes.
Microsoft Docs – Monitoring Dataflows Gen2 - Email Notifications.
Unlike Gen1, Gen2 doesn’t send failure emails by default. You’ll need to set up a Power Automate flow (or similar) to get alerts on refresh failures.

Akhil.- Use Monitoring Hub or Run History.
