    Hi ankesh ,

     

    In my test, I found that you had to use another account to take over the dataset in one of the workspaces so that you could set different credentials for the two datasets.

     

    Here are some screenshots of my test.

     

     

     

    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

    Best Regards,

Hi ankesh 

 

As it stands today it will use the same data source credential for the same dataflow. You would have to duplicate it and give it another name.

    How do i give another name for "PowerPlatformDataflows" in both workspaces so that they are not considered the same? I am sorry if you misunderstood the question. I have edited it now to provide more clarity.

      Hi ankesh 


      When you create the dataflow you can give it a name?
