hey All, just posting my experience here today - renaming a dataflow doesn't work. I followed the same steps in the screenshot of this post.
seeing as it's my first attempt at a serious power bi dataflow, and that it's been an issue for over a year, it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in me.
i spent an hour on this issue, and tried renaming the dataflow 20-odd times. (and what a waste of my time it was.)
Encountering the same issue. This is pretty poor given this issue appears to have been around a very long time, I've seen posts from 2019 on this.
We have a couple of hundred dataflows to rename to adhere to a new naming convention. Obviously not practical to delete and re-create these simply to solve what should be a mundane modification such as applying a new name.
Is there anything further available by way of a solution to this?
