Issue accessing dataflow on PBI Service even when I am admin

I have created a workspace with my colleague and I as admins. She has created a Gen 1 dataflow connected to Redshift Serverless.

However, I am unable to access the dataflow on PBI Desktop or see any attributes from the dataflow.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Hi meowster The issue might be of number of reasons could you check for these please

    • Verify you have explicit permissions to access the dataflow.
    • Confirm you're signed in with the correct account in Power BI Desktop.
    • Clear the cache in Power BI Desktop by navigating to File > Options and Settings > Options > Data Load > Clear Cache.
    • Ensure the dataflow is published and refresh is successful.
    • Confirm Redshift credentials are properly configured in the dataflow.

      Thank you Akash_Varuna, I've tried all except the first "Verify you have explicit permissions to access the dataflow". The dataflow owner is unable to explicitly give me permission as there is no selection to do so. How do I explicitly give permission?
