Premium Capacity Settings - Workloads - Dataflows not showing

Thanks in advance.

In our Premium Capacity > Capacity Settings > Workloads

We only have Datasets we can configure Memory limit etc

I have read documentation that Dataflows should be also be an option with similar configurations but not showing?

Yes Dataflows are enabled

Hi @CrazyHorse66 ,

What you use is   Gen2 ?If use Gen1 can run normally, it is recommended to restore to Gen1  first, because Gen 2 is still in the preview stage, and there are some limitations or many unsupported functions.

  According to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-premium-what-is#capacity-workloads , these workloads (AI, Dataflows, and Paginated reports) are supported in Premium subscriptions only.

So far I have found the same problems, all because of Gen 2:

This is not a solution! Per Microsoft - This next generation of Power BI Premium, referred to as Power BI Premium Gen2, has officially moved from preview to general availability as of October 4, 2021. 

The fact that we cannot access P1 Capacity Dataflow settings is unbelievable. How is Microsft not addressing this issue? I've seen no resolution anywhere online.

Hi  @CrazyHorse66 ,

In Capacity settings, you can configure dataflow settings by expanding Workloads.And in the Workloads section, scroll to the Dataflows area. The following image shows the settings you can use to control or refine the dataflow workload's behavior for your capacity.

Thankyou but that's my point, I have already followed those instructions but ref your image, I only have Datasets, nothing for Dataflows
