    Hi hmilam , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.

     

    The problem lies not in your pipeline setup but in a fundamental limitation of how the GA connector handles parameter injection during runtime. There is no reliable way to work around this within the Dataflow + GA connector path today. Your best bet is either to stage the GA data separately using a non-parameterized dataflow or switch to direct API ingestion into your Lakehouse or Warehouse. Both options are stable under CI/CD, work well in production, and avoid the brittle connector behaviour you're currently facing.
