    I solved it this morning! By turning the code PowerBI uses to connect to regular dataflows into code that connects to the legacy dataflows. Since PowerBI suddenly only recognized my dataflows as legacy dataflows, this worked.

     

    This is the code I changed:

    This is the code that used to work before my dataflows were seen as legacy dataflows:

    This is the code that makes it work at the moment

Hey Expiscornovus, 

I just discovered something else that might clear some things up, all dataflows that used to work as normal dataflows, can now only be found in the Power BI dataflows (legacy) options, could that be causing my problems? I have no idea why they are suddenly classified as legacy dataflows.

Not sure if that is the reason. I also have dataflows which are not Gen2 showing up in that Navigator. Below is an example of a dataflow which I created two years ago.

 

Btw, did you manage to check your diagnostics/trace log? Alternatively, I might be good to contact Microsoft support about this as well?
