    @yingyinr Hi - you did not answer the actual question.

     

    Anonymous is asking whether a user can connect a dataset (using PBI desktop) to an existing dataflow and then turn on incremental refresh on the dataset.

    Anonymous Did you actually read my message? I'm not trying to set up Incremental Refresh in Dataflows, I'm trying to set it up for a dataset that uses Dataflows as a data source.

     

    Could you provide any information on that or perhaps even address my actual questions?

        Hey Anonymous,

         

        Would you happen to have an answer on the questions I asked? Or maybe a colleague could help you out?

         

        Thanks so much in advance.
