Hi v-kelly-msft 

Thank you for the quick reponse! 

1: Its an ODBC connection to Hive Database. We use the HortonWorks ODBC Drivers. There are no additional steps after reading the source. Since about 1 week, I am seeing this error message a lot 

2. We are using the Enterprise Gateway. There is only one gateway which has not been changed. The error message you see has to do with permissions. I as an Gateway Admin can create Entities, however my team mates who are just Gateway Connection Users are unable to create Entities. However they are able to use the same connection to schedule their Datasets.   
This issue was fixed by Microsoft in Septemebr 2019. But we are still experiencing this error message.

same here - multiple types of source systems (ODBC to HIVE/Hadoop, MS SQL Server, etc.) - enterprise gateway, P1 capacity, have been using dataflows for a long time with great success. Now recently, these problems are preventing me from making several needed updates...
