Publishing separate Dashboards in same Workspace using same Dataflows
Thank you for replying.
- I'm working with (2) Dashboards each having different names The 2 PBIX(s) have different names.
- Both Dasboards are working off the same dataflows.

Thanks again.
I don't mean to be the Power BI nomenclature police, but it's essential that you use the correct entity names otherwise things are confusing and we won't be able to help you. Dashboards don't "work off dataflows", dashboards are purely visual entities that display pinned report pages, report visuals, and/or Excel worksheets:

Once you’ve created a dataflow, you can use Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service to create datasets, reports, dashboards,and apps that leverage the Common Data Model to drive deep insights into your business activities.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-introduction-self-serviceI've been using dataflows since their 2018 preview so I'm quite aware of what they do and don't do. It goes like this: dataflow > dataset (or other dataflow, or datamart, but let's keep it simple) > report > dashboard, there is no dataflow > dashboard direct path in Power BI, as I already explained. If you had read the documentation you linked more than very superficially, you'd have found that under "Consuming dataflows":
I'm happy to help but you're going to have to do your part, and that starts by being much more precise about what you're doing and what you're trying to accomplish.
