Ownership of the Dataflow

Hello everyone -

 

how is it possible for a group of users to collaborate on a dataflow? Now only the creator can see / change it.

It is a must for large companies to set dataflow permissions for a group of users to see, edit and in general collaborate on the dataflow.

 

Also I saw a relatively new feature called "Take Over" has been released to move the ownership of the dataflow* to some body else but I don't see that button appearing on the dataflow page. Any idea?

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi andreamastrini ,

     

    "Take over" feature is available when your member have edit permission in the workspace.

    Then you could go to setting tab to take over ownership of dataflow.

      Thanks v-eachen-msft !

      However that does not solve the issue for large companies where a group of people needs to collaborate on the dataflow. Any thoughts? I feel like should be a must for large organization to set permissions on the dataflow... not only the owner should have access to it.
