Dataflow refresh fails with An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Hi, I have a Dataflow that pulls .csv files from a Sharepoint folder, but since 2 weeks i can't refresh it anymore as it constantly fails with this: "Error: DataSource.Error: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host." I have many other dataflows set up from the same sharepoint and other csv files but they work just fine. Once in the past 2 weeks i managed to have it refresh only once. The message is always the same. 

Any advice?

Thanks,

Thanks, i am a pro user, but my company blocked Support, i can only log in with a personal account, so that's no option. Strangely when i moved the import from the dataflow to desktop it worked like a charm, so problem solved.

Hi @Bezzy ,

 

I have tested on my side and it works well. And until now, I haven't found a possible workaround.
