Hi Anonymous ,

 

Do you mean the issue solved now, but there is no link between dataset and dataflow?

And do you mean the no link situation is the dataflow has no link with original dataset or the new dataset?

Let me explain by the picture below.

 

 

Assume you need to create a report using dataset A and dataflow A, then you publish it to service.

Now you have a dataset B.

So is the link from dataset A and dataflow A or dataset B and dataflow A?

 

Best regards,

    The "CEDID-dataset" dataset (original dadaset) uses the "Source Excel" dataflow, and there is no link between them. But, when i modify data in the dataflow, and i refresh the dataset, data is updated in the dataset !

    The "CEDID-dataflow" dataset (new dadaset) uses the "Source Excel" dataflow, and there is a link between them. Normal situation.
