Dataflows: Please specify how to connect

I am editing an existing data flow and started to get an error on a query which is a combination of two others;

When I select Configure connection and put in my credentials, that I know are correct, I am returned to the screen above. Over and over. All other queries in the dataflow use the same source and gateway. The two queries that make up the above work just fine, only the combination errors. The dataflow itself refreshed just fine this morning. 

 

Any ideas?

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    As the official document said, this problem happens when you're connected to a data source, but haven't set up the credentials or connection details yet. It can happen when you migrate queries into a dataflow.

     

    Below is a workaround provided in this similar thread, and I suggest you always use the lastest version of PBI.
