There is an option in dataflows to Import Model, which then presents you to select a json file.

    Hi, did you actually try this though ?  I've tried it and nothing happens after selecting the JSON that was previously exported and clicking OPEN.  Maybe you have to modify the JSON with a new unique dataflow name ??

      Hi frano72 .

       

      I didn't try this. As I said to Anonymous, when I needed this option didn't exist.

       

      I recreated the flow with the same name in another workspace.

       

      regards,

       

      Marcelo.

        1. change model.json file exported from dataflow to a different name, if you don't want to delete the old one. 

        2. Change AllowNativeQueries attribute in model.json to false if it's true.
