Suddenly dataflow refresh error SqlDateTime overflow
I have the same issue happening. Suddenly getting this on a dataflow that has been working for months:
Error: An internal error occurred... RootActivityId = 710a9c86-c5ea-4a6d-be0d-2ff48508cbfa.Param1 = SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM. Request ID: 0ff1c41f-fc08-454a-a2c0-95aeae3006a2.
If I convert DateTime columns to Text, it refreshes without issue. Something was messed up this last week in the Time format. It doesnt happen in the desktop model.
Not good, but good to hear I am not the only one.
I have a call with MS Support tomorrow and will post again if I have a solution.
Right now I fixed it by inserting replace value #date(1,1,1) with null for all date columns...

Alex_Rajkov I was able to get past this in the dataflow today. I had a few date/time fields that had "0217" rather than "2017". This was never really a problem before and have been in the dataset for months. I corrected these prior to converting to date/time and the dataflow now refreshes. I wonder in the past if this would have come back as "0217" as the year... whatever change they put in has this now appearing as "217" which triggers the error.

I am curious, did you also change to the new dataflow enhanced compute engine?
Even after fixing that new problem, I ran into more problems with dataflows.
refresh of dependent dataflows not refreshing with the source dataflow. Refresh runs forever, dataflow wouldn’t open to edit, other never seen before error messages...
I deactivated it today and so far so good.

I believe we have turned on the new compute engine. At a global organization so I cannot turn off unfortunately.
