Data flow entity disappeared

Hello,

 

My data flow entity has just disappeared...

 

I have made some small changes on data transformation, No errors.

 

When trying to connect to the data flow from desktop, it's gone!

 

The very same code works without issues on a pbix.

Hi @webportal,

Can you please explain more about these?

For example:

1. what type of data source did you work? Power bi desktop version?

2. where are your tenant hosted?

3. which type of operations/changes that you applied to the dataflow?

Hello,
I was just trying to read a csv file in my Power BI Pro license.
No data transformations.
It just disappeared.
Have no idea why, but seen other users complaining. I just gave up.

Hi @webportal,

In fact, power bi dataflow not as same as power bi desktop, it has limited some operations that you can't use them in common dataflow entities.

I'd like to suggest you take a look at the following link to confirm this operation only allowed in computed entities(premium).

Using computed entities on Power BI Premium
