Data Flow availability

[luxpbi]

Hi all, 

I've see the new Data Flows and I think it is a huge great idea. I know that it is in public preview now, but I'm not able to see it in the service. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or it is because It's no available right now for me. 

Do you know if the availability depends on the location of the servers? If it is, what are the servers that support this funtionality right now? 

And also, if I'm not wrong it's a Pro feature and not only premium, I'm right? 

Thanks a lot in advance !

Regards,

hello,

Is it possible to create a data set in the Power BI service directly from the dataflows or you still need to go through the Power BI desktop?

@luxpbi hello, like i've read in this article, have this mention:

"Power BI will support advanced dataflow refresh features, including incremental dataflow refresh, to streamline and speed the dataflow refresh process and to support the ingestion of larger data sets. Requires Power BI Premium."

take a look in all articles:

I've saw that you can create a streaming connect in Top right menu, take a look below:

Hi @henriquesilveir, 

Thank you for your prompt response. 

I'm not talking about Data Flow incremental refresh as you mention and I'm not sure why you talk about streaming dataset here, they are completely different things. 

As you can see here: 

Data Flow

I'm talking about Self-service data prep with dataflows (Public Preview) released in the October update. 

You have the option in Power BI Desktop, but I can't see it in the Service and I think I because of geolocalitation of servers.

Thanks for your help

Hi @luxpbi,

Confirmed by PG, the public preview date for dataflow is delayed. 

In addition, this feature is not only for premium.

@luxpbi, take a look in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SP4oYiCV6A

the data flow must be available into home page, but there is no available. Probally it will be published in a few days.
