Dataflow refresh to SharePoint folder failed

We are having issues overnight with all dataflows which access SharePoint folders as the data source.

Nothing in our dataflows has been edited - they just started failing "unable to access attributes" which is the system generated record field for SharePoint. Access to SharePoint directly is OK

Have raised a support ticket with Microsoft, but interested to know if any others are seeing this behaviour in the last 48 hours (particularly in Australia East Coast tenants)

Hi,

 

I can't reproduce your problem. Would you please show us the detailed error message in refresh history:

Would  you please try to connect to the SharePoint folder by SharePoint folder option for test:

Hi @v-deddai1-msft ,

 

Detail message is "Error: Expression.Error: The field 'Attributes' of the record wasn't found." 

This has been occuring over the past 48 hours with all dataflows that use SharePoint.Files query source call.

Prior to 48 hours ago, all dataflows and scheduled refreshes were completing successfully.

All dataflows are failing with same message - on-demand or scheduled. 

I have MS internal ticket number for further information if required.
