Refresh of Dataflow Gen1 with Gateway Connection to SQL server is failing on Pro workspace

I am using Dataflow Gen1 in the Pro workspace of the Power BI service to connect to an on-premise SQL Server database using On-premise Gateway. A few months ago, everything was working fine. However, for the past couple of months, the refresh has been failing. When I refresh the data from the M-Query of the dataflow it works but when I refresh the dataflow it's failing.

 

In the error message export from the dataflow nothing is specified. it says ony Error : Request ID :  and Activity ID. 

 

Here are the steps I have thoroughly checked:

 

  1. No premium transformations or features are used in the dataflow. I even tried using a basic table with 100 rows without any transformations, but it still failed.
  2. I checked the Gateway connection configuration. It is working fine, as the same Gateway connection is being used to refresh the dataset, and it works.
  3. The on-premises data gateway is up to date.

  4. I recreated the dataflow multiple times in different Pro workspaces with different users and still the issue is persists. 

  5. I also checked that,  the same dataflow is working perfectly fine when I use the Premium workspace. 

Has anyone experienced a similar issue or have any suggestions?
