Thank you for the reply, Rico.
Unfortunately the dataflow doesn't exist in my workspace. I created a new workspace to test, and tried again and got the same error. I am not sure how to change the name of my dataflow. It looks like the name is created from the server and database you are connecting to?
What I am thinking happened was that the dataflow was created in a workspace, then the workspace was deleted (but the dataflow remains).

I did. The answer below me did not work. I ended up connecting with Microsoft support and going to settings-manage gateways and finding the duplicate data flow there.
