Datamart not refreshing
- 2 years ago
We found the problem. One of the data sources had a field with a marked key on. We changed the format of this field from text to number, and this seems to have caused the problem.
It would have been really helpful if the error messages had told us this, as when we went to refresh the data source, there was no indication that this was what was causing the whole Datamart not to run.
I added the suggestion as you recommended and have fed this back
mbrierley Probably some kind of transient issue in the Service. Seems to be happening recently. You'll have to contact support and provide them with the correlation ids to get to the bottom of what is going on.
You could check the Issues forum here:

And if it is not there, then you could post it.
