Dataflow Gen2 – Error 104100 after Save & Run (validation OK)

Hello everyone,

 

I’m facing an issue with a Dataflow Gen2:

  • Context

    • Connection created to a SharePoint folder.

    • Reading a CSV file from this folder.

    • Applied basic transformations in Power Query (filter file, import CSV, promote headers, change column types, rename columns).

 

  • Observed behavior

    • Validation succeeds (Succeeded – last run 18/08/2025 at 1:47 PM).

    • But when I click Save & Run, I get the following error:

There was a problem refreshing the dataflow. 
Please review the error message(s) below, fix the problem, and try again. 
(Request ID: ae16c38e-2299-408e-ab65-c55da576880d)

Error Details: We encountered an error during evaluation. 
Unknown evaluation error code: 104100

 

  • Question
    Has anyone already encountered this 104100 error in Dataflows Gen2 (validation passes but execution fails)?
    Is there a known issue or workaround when using CSV files from SharePoint?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!
