Hey all!

This bug is still very much active unfortunately!

Spent quite a bit of time troubleshooting yesterday, with my resolution ultimately being to delete my Datasets and write fresh ones.

Seems that at some point in the datasets history, it had Query Designer enabled and had legacy parameters active here!

Unfortunate that we cannot simply amend an existing query, if we decide we need to update or rename a parameter 😞

Happy to details to the product team if needed, or if someone want to get in touch!

Thanks,
Aaron
