Dataflows are not available to connect to on PBI desktop on Windows 11.

[aleckealey18]

Hello, 

Currently using windows 11 with the newest version of PBI desktop. The newer dataflows conenctor does not show up. I can only see the Dataflows (Legacy). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the newest version and even tried older versions. Nothing seems to get the Dataflows option to show. 

Any ideas?

Hi  @aleckealey18 ,

Can you provide detailed version information so we can reproduce the issue? We'll get back to the product team as soon as it's acknowledged as an issue!
Thanks in advance!

Best regards.

Hi @Anonymous, 

So, we have a newer laptop on windows 11. When I downloaded Power BI, the dataflows option does not populate or show as a choice on my dekstop application. It did before hand on previous version of windows. I have redownloaded and tried different versions of Power BI with no progress.

Hello, is this still being looked into?

@Anonymous this is also still happening with one of our users, who is not on the Fabric trial. I can still see and use, but also still have the Fabric Trial active.

This issue fixed its self somehow. Got on a call the other day with user and they could suddenly see Dataflows. Not sure what changed to fix it though.

@aleckealey18 glad it has resolved itself for your user.

My user is seeing the button in the PBI desktop, but it doesnt do anything

These are the Get Data Options in Power Query

and when copying into a blank query they get this:

It works fine for her in Excel. They are on Version: 2.121.903.0 32-bit (September 2023)

@Anonymous how do we raise this as an issue?
