Dataflow change can't be saved

[f5beckyshao]

Hi, 

I have been trying to make a small change to one of my dataflows since 27th April, the dataflow is unable to save. The page is always stuck like below, 

After about couple minutes, i got this "Pages Unresponsive" pop up window, and it could repeat like forever. Tried on different web broswers (e.g. Chrome, Edge), same results. 

Did anyone have same issue and how could this be resolved please? BTW, I understand currently there is awared issue about dataflow refresh, this dataflow (which i couldn't save change) can still refresh successfully - just don't include the desired change. 

thank you in advance.

Hi , @f5beckyshao 

I haven't found a similar issue recently. Did you change anything after editing? The situation you said that cannot be saved is only for this one dataflow or all dataflows have this situation ? I tested in my dataflow , it worked well .

Hi @Anonymous ,

Thanks for looking into this issue for me. 

The only change I made was adding in a filter step in one of the tables.

This situation is happening to some of dataflows for one of my clients, they do have some dataflows work well. For this client, we have tested multi ways - using different web browser, trying on different laptop, editing and saving during the queit time (mid-night). Unfortunately, nothing worked.

Below is another example for this client: i have tested by adding a sorting step, couldn't save it again. and the "validating queries" pop-up window is not showing either. 

I have seen similar issue with another client, but they could ultimately save it after trying couple times. I also have clients don't have any issue with the dataflow, the editing and saving process is easy and smoothy. 

Hope these information is enough for you to investigate on. 

thank you in advance
