Keep track of referenced dataflow

Hi All,

 

When you design dataflow, are you leaving one main linked dataflow to lead the refresh for whole series and disable load for any other supporting linked dataflow?

I know that the view lineage function is really helpful, but to those dataflow that have data load disabled, how do keep track of those? Are you documenting the relation somewhere else? Because basically locating those reference dataflows require one to open the design to check.

Please advise with your best practices,

 

Thanks and best regards,

Rich

@v-yadongf-msft  although my question is not related to the article you shared, I appreciated your support.

The question is about dataflow series design and how one could keep track of those inactive (non-loaded) linked table.

Best regards,

Rich
