Dataflow Feature Limitation - Seeking Clarity on Documentation

On the Microsoft knowledge base / documentation here it says:

Dataflows in Premium

Dataflows that exist in Premium have the following considerations and limitations.

Refreshes and data considerations:

  • When refreshing Dataflows, timeouts are 24 hours (no distinction for tables and/or dataflows)

 

Is this intending to convey that Dataflows can only be refreshed once per 24 hours? I have been facing a lot of Sharepoint related Request failures and am wondering if it's because of this limitation.

  • My interpretation of this is that refreshes will timeout if they run beyond 24 hours. If your refreshes only take a few minutes or hours, this shouldn't be a problem.
