Data Flow Issue - Data source error

Data Flows is not connecting to data, no data shows and it won't refresh -(I don't own the data but they have tested it with another workspace and it's working for them)

 So I assumed it was due to not having enough memory in my workspace

But it can't be the case as it has 10gb so I would assume that is not the case - below is the error message we receive

Proof that it is a premium workspace below

I'm not a tenant admin so I don't know if there is some backend setting that needs to be changed - let me know if you know what's going on 

Kind regards,
Andrew

Error message on dataflows - power query

You could ask your capacity admin to increase the memory limit or you could consider refactoring your Power Query so it uses less memory  (or maybe use incremental refresh)
