2-Can pro user use Dataflow ?

hi, @Anonymous 

1. The dataflows functionality is in preview for now, and is subject to change and updates prior to general availability.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-dataflows-overview

2. You must have a paid Power BI account to use dataflows, such as a Power BI Pro or Power BI Premium account, but you are not charged separately for using dataflows.

3. Dataflows are designed to use the Common Data Model, a standardized, modular, extensible collection of data schemas published by Microsoft that are designed to make it easier for you to build, use, and analyze data. With this model, you can go from data sources to Power BI dashboards with nearly zero friction.

4. here is the official tutorial for you refer to

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-dataflows-create-use

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-dataflows-data-sources

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-connect-dataflows
