Using a variable in a dataflow

Hi all,

 

I would like to capture and use table value [dataflowId] in the image below as a variable in my data flow (Navigation) step 15.

But then on step 18 it breaks...

 

If we hardcode the variable Navigation with the specific dataflowId as in the image below it works properly but that's not what I need since the dataflowId changes now and then.

Thank you people for your support,

Hi Ibendlin,

it was giving me an error about privacy levels maybe because I was accessing different dataflows in the same query? Anyway, yesterday I did not see that I could just approve that "firewall" on privacy levels and now it's working properly. 

Thank you anyway sir, I doubled check on it because of your question.

Have a great day,

Guillermo
