Dataflows always fail to refresh due to "internal error"

[Anonymous]

I cannot seem to get a single dataflow to work. Even the most simple dataflow that doesn't connect to any data source and just returns static data will fail to refresh with the error:
 
Error: Internal error Request ID: 67d17199-9d7f-23ca-59f0-aa5534b1b9e2 Activity ID: ec2ef1d5-5e76-4cc7-98b4-da9d03db843a
 
or similar. I've tried everything...different data sources, credentials, different app workspaces. Nothing seems to make any difference, and I can't find any details as to why. Other uses seem to get this issue for a variety of reasons but none seem to apply to me.
 
I'm starting to wonder if it's an account based issue, but I don't know how to access any deeper diagnostic information.
 
Suggestions appreciated.

Having the same problem. Just previewing/evaluating 1 excel file took 66 minutes. Normally takes around 30 secs.

it looks that it is a global problem: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Dataflow-service-is-down-today/m-p/2158030#M143251

I have a similar problem, the data flow stops and gives an "Internal error" for no reason.

Help solve the problem!

Same issue on my side. I do have multiple dataflows, which are all connecting to the same SharePoint directory. For some reason two of them work, and 5 others doesn't... 

Is there an update from the team working on this issue? Is the fix already in place, or maybe a suggested workaround? 

Thanks in advance, 
Marc

Hi Marc, can you please add Request ID and Activity ID (from history excel)?

Thanks

[marclelijveld]

Hi @Batchen_Haviv 

Tanks for asking. 
Hereby the log of one dataflow (out of 5 current failing dataflows).

Error: Internal error
Request ID: 6ecd61df-4e53-1a7d-4a42-7b2184f69d33
Activity ID: 9a551e6a-7a58-451d-9d9c-76a7f0159821

Thanks in advance!

Hey Marc

We are aware of this problem and a fix should be available by the end of week.

If you wish to overcome it immediately you can rename your entities so they include only letters, numbers and spaces (no special characters) and also verify they don't start with a number.

Thanks

I get other error every time when I'm trying to refresh the dataflow:

AzureBlobs failed to get the response: 'Unable to connect to the remote server'. Request ID: 678316e9-7984-55c0-0e87-1f6bd6cd0ea5 Activity ID: 00ebce37-f7cd-4482-83e7-0b68ecb3be59

It's pretty weird because when I create a dataflow It get the preview data every time.

What I should do?

Hi Davolsen,

I've just looked into the logs base on the request Id you provided us. We saw the same problem from other customers and engineering team is working on a fix. We will update you as soon as the fix will be in place.

Thanks,

Galia

Nope. There is no fix for this issue. I continue to use old datasets with my personal gateway. It's disaster!
