Update dataflow data source type for dataflows in gateway?

What's the recommended way of dealing with the change to the Dataflow connector in the service? (From "Power BI dataflows (Legacy)" to "Dataflows")?

 

I have an entry in my gateway for "Power BI" that's of type Power BI dataflows (Legacy), but now I'm being prompted to manually enter a new entry in the gateway for reports that're using the same dataflow but that have been updated in the PBIX to authenticate using the new Dataflows connector. Should I just go ahead and manually add this new entry, or is there a way for the gateway admin to update the data source type on my existing Power BI entry to be "Dataflows" instead of Power BI dataflows (Legacy)?

 

Thanks.

Hi @MarkPalmberg ,

 

As far as I know, the gateway admin shouldn't be able to do anything about this so far, you need to add it manually yourself.

You can refer this documentation if it helps you:

Solved: Change data source in Power BI Dataflow - Microsoft Power BI Community

Solved: Connector Power BI dataflows (Legacy) vs Dataflows - Microsoft Power BI Community

 

Hope this helps you.
