Unable to create new Dataflow

Trying to create a dataflow on power bi service. The option just gets a screen and spins forever. Been trying for an hour now. Any one noticed the issue?

Hi, @uyarasi 

As far as I know, Power BI is currently updating the schema for the dataflow feature so that Power BI Premium customers using dataflows will have a more reliable dataflow refresh running experience, during the update phase, there will be situations where creating or refreshing dataflows encounter long-running refreshes or refreshes stuck in canceled state, for customers who encounter this, we recommend splitting complex dataflows, limiting the total number of queries per dataflow, and strategically planning scheduled refreshes for Premium capacity.

Product groups will also provide more information until November 11, 2022. For more details and recommended next steps, see the Power BI dataflow known issues documentation.

 

For more information, you can refer to the official Power BI technical support website:
