Hello,
Unfortunately, my PowerBI dataflows that have worked fine in the past are now stuck in refresh, and I have no ability to debug what's going on as there appears to be no errors on my end. They have been running for many hours (overnight), whether previously they had taken only up to an hour.
Please could this matter be treated as a point of urgency as it is greatly delaying the delivery of data updates to my clients.
Many thanks,
Jasper
I was in the same problem today that my dataflows went on "refresh in progress" for some 6 hours non-stop. I am not sure what caused that issue. I wonder is it because I shared a dataset downstream utilizing this linkage set of Dataflow.
Next to the Refresh option, the ellipse (verticle ... ) button, click on that and select Cancel refresh. That will save your day!
Hope that help. Have a great day.
My dataflows are refreshing fine, but when I connect to them in Desktop or Service, they are not updated.
Very strange.
