Dataflow Refresh Problem - We couldn't convert to DateTime

‎01-12-2022 02:40 PM

Hello, guys.

 

I'm trying to refrsh my dataflow since yesterday (01/11/2022) and the following error is given

"Error: DataFormat.Error: We couldn't convert to DateTime. . RootActivityId = bd37086a-288e-434a-9ba2-23a4c4961b5f.Param1 = DataFormat.Error: We couldn't convert to DateTime. Request ID: fa891cd6-eb62-3a5d-02db-fc2787eeaa23."

 

This is really weird as i noticed something very similar on this post: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Dataflow-Refresh-Problem-We-cannot-convert-the-value-datetim...

 

So, I'd like to know if there is something wrong with Dataflows right now, just like in the post above.

You have blank values in your source data. Find them and fix them.
