    Hi saikumarpadakan ,

    To use DirectQuery with dataflows, you must explicitly toggle the enhanced compute engine to On in dataflow settings. You must then refresh the dataflow before it can be consumed in DirectQuery mode.

    1. Navigate to the Premium dataflow, and set enhanced compute engine to On.
    2. Refresh the dataflow.

    After you complete the steps, the dataflow is accessible in Power BI Desktop with DirectQuery mode.

    Below is the official link will help you:
