Microsoft Fabric Dataflow Gen 2 Refresh, Creates New Table in Lake House
I created a simple Dataflow Gen 2 in Microsoft Fabric.
This Dataflow Gen 2, import a table from an excel file which is located in SharePoint.
This works as expected and creates Table in LakeHouse.
I want to refresh my table in Lakehouse via this Dataflow Gen 2.
When I click refresh on Dataflow Gen 2, it creates a new table in Lakehouse.
I want my table in lakehouse refreshed, not create a new table each time I refresh Dataflow Gen 2.
I believe I'm doing something wrong when I setup my Dataflow Gen 2 but not sure how to fix it.
Thanks in advance.

When you selected your destination as to the Lakehouse it should have asked you if you want to create a new table?

Thanks Gilbert,
This link and your advise worked. For people who will come from google in the future make sure you select a existing table as below as default comes new table.
