    Hi， Anonymous 

    There is only  one owner of a dataflow, which means that if you are not the owner you cannot work on the dataflow.

    As mentioned by lbendlin ,if you are not the owner and you are a Workspace admins or member you can take over ownership to work on the flow by going to Settings(In the top menu bar)> settings->Dataflows-> 'Take over'.

     

     

    By the way,when you take over the Dataflow, you may also need to reset the Gateway.
