Premium Generation 2 (preview) problems with dataflows

[lawrenceabith]

Hi Everyone,

I activated the Power BI Premium G2 in my P1 and my all dataflows stop working.   I saw something in "Known limitations in Premium Gen2: Dataflows with ADLS Gen2 data sources are not currently functional on Premium Gen2 capacities."It´s possible to use G2 with dataflow?Can you help me? Can you explain to me?

There was a problem refreshing your dataflow Your INPI dataflow couldn’t be refreshed because there was a problem with one or more entities, or because dataflow capabilities were unavailable. The next refresh for “INPI” is scheduled for November 17, 2020 8:00 UTC.

Thanks,

@Anonymousdeativating and switching back on did the trick. Thank you.

hi @lawrenceabith,

the limitation is gone now. What is Microsoft Power BI Premium? - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

you need to deactivate premium for the workspace where the dataflow sits and then switch it on again. If you dont do that and you do a refresh that fails, the error shows the details now. after that it should work. It did for me.

We ran into the same issue, had to revert to Gen1 in order to get Dataflows to run. Dataflows are one of the most important features for premium capacities and it is very dissapointing to see such a failure. The error log is too vaugue stating "An error occured refreshing your dataflow". Okay great, maybe give some log detail or something.

Yes @Anonymous I agree! Our dataflows needs to run in Gen2.

Hi @v-janeyg-msft ,

I'm not able to see the Workloads section (to change XMLA Read/Write setting) when G2 is enabled.  Where would I change this setting with G2 enabled?

Hi， @lawrenceabith 

It’s my pleasure to answer for you.

According to your description, the problem that the dataflows can't be refreshed occurred after upgrading G2.If use P1 can run normally, it is recommended to restore to P1 first, because G2 is still in the preview stage, and there are some limitations or many unsupported functions.

If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.

Hi @v-janeyg-msft,

I restore to G1 and my dataflows are running well, but do you have plans to work with dataflow in G2?

Thanks,

This was the same on our premium capacity node. Workloads looked to be limited to Datasets and AI (no reference to Dataflows).
