Issue Help - No way to consume dataflows from another dataflow
Dear colleagues,
I am becoming crazy trying to do such a simple thing as trying to consume a dataflow from another one (chained dataflow)
I am following steps described here
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-configure-consume
to consume a dataflow from an existing one
but at this point no matter the selection I choose I became stuck.
If we select the legacy after selecting the connection I get following error message
An exception occurred: Unable to connect to the remote server (Session ID: 065444cf-1bb5-4344-8dea-68f16b9ef8c8, Region: europe)
If I select the new Dataflow connector I get stuck awaiting forever the list of dataflows available to be updated
Same issue does occur trying to add new entities or adding linked ones.
Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong?
Many Thanks for your support,
Alfons
I think I found the solution. Problem came when you try to add new tables or linked entity tables on an existing dataflow with entities obtained from an On-premise connection (gateway). It looks like you can not mix different kind of connections on the same dataflow.
I was able to create chained dataflows tables on a different dataflow created from scratch
So, I answered myself. I Hope it helps some one else
Thanks
