Dataflow Double Refresh

Do anyone have any idea why a dataflow would double refresh on its own? Only the 6:30 refresh is scheduled yet the refresh history says that the second refresh, which started exactly when the 6:30 refresh finished, is also scheduled (not true).

Hi @robarivas ,

 

Do you only have these two records? How is earlier refresh records looks like, two records for everyday's refresh?

Thanks @Anonymous Out of frustration I just went ahead and deleted the dataflow. It was a recently created dataflow but, yes, I believe it had that double refresh behavior each day for the few days it existed. So I'd still be curious as to what could've caused that (even though the dataflow is gone now) because I may want to recreate it in the very near future.

Hi @robarivas ,

 

Sorry, i can't restore the scenario on my computer. I'm not sure if it was caused by multiple linked entities.
I'd like to suggest you to create a support ticket for further analysis.

Actually, I have exactly the same issue.

 

The flow was schedule for 2 AM but right after it finishes, it start again. I noticed it and canceled before it went on with that refresh...

I do have flows that have linked entities but in this case there is nothing else refreshing at the same time so I don't understand why this happens...

 

A little help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Pedro
