Missing Dataflow Gen1

Hello,

 

I was creating several Dataflows on Power BI Service in the past. I just realized that I cannot create a new Dataflow Legacy/Gen1.

 

When I am finding to create a new Dataflow, it shows only Gen2 and asks me to upgrade Fabtic trial.

Is there any way I can create this, as I am not using Fabric capacity?

 

Thank you for your help.

Hii @yanain9 


Microsoft has officially stopped offering Dataflow Gen1 as a creation option  only existing Gen1 dataflows can still run. All new dataflows must be created as Dataflow Gen2, which is part of Fabric.

Even if you are not using Fabric capacity, you can still create Gen2 dataflows in a Pro workspace, but you cannot create new Gen1 dataflows anymore. This change is by design and not a tenant setting.
