Connecting to dataflow Errors moving to power Query Editor after taking ownership

I have set up a dataflow and great news is that now people can got to Settings .... Settings .... dataflow and take over ownership

 

Another member of the team took over the dataflow and then tried to connect. 

 

They got to the Power BI Query Editor in Service got this error

 

 

And then later we got this error messge

We both have chome and this works ok for other people. Has anyone seen this issue before when taking over and connecting to a dataflow?

 

Thanks in Advance

  • Hi there

    Could you try again possibly there might have been an issue with the PBI Service?

      Shes on holiday now but we will have another go after the bank holiday. It was odd though because we were all fine, It was only happening from one machine but we all use the same browser

    Hi DebbieE ,

     

    The users below can take over a dataflow:

     

    1.Workspace admins and workspace members, if workspace members have permissions to edit Power BI content.

     

    2.In the new workspaces (preview) – Users that have admin, member, or contributor role.

     

    Note: When taking over a dataflow the new owner will be required to provide credentials for all data sources used by that dataflow.

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy

      All the above rules are met and the last sentence is really good to know.

       

      Im guessing then, every time you take over ownership you have to add in the credentials?
