Hi pawlowski6132 ,

 

There is a similar case reported in Issue forum you may refer to : Unable to save a dataflow . Or you may update the on premise data gateway to the latest version to avoid potential issue. 

 

If you still have this issue for Power BI, you'd better create a support ticket in Power BI Support , Scroll down and click "CREATE SUPPORT TICKET", or go to Issue forum  to get further help.

 

Best Regards,

Amy

Hello Amy,

 

I have a data flow connecting from weeky xlsx data files. Then I build a dataflow for these data. Whenever I do some transformation steps in the data flow (create new columns, change data type, extract characters from one column to create a new columns, change columns order, etc.), the table that I connect with Power report (Desktop) shows an empty table.

 


Now, I leave data flow without any transformation and connect it to datamart: I transform the data in datamart. It also cannot save and show some error message 

 

When I leave dataflow without any transformation and then connect data flow into power bi desktop, then transform all data in desktop and it works.

Do you know why it is like that? We cannot transform data in data flow or data mart?? Thank you for answering
