Workspace 10GB limit - do Dataflows count against that?

[mmace1]

I have a Worksspace with 12 Dataflows & 1 Dataset.  We only have Power BI Pro, with about 30 Pro users. 

I notice when I go to Settings > Manage Group Storage, only the Dataset shows up (the Dataflows do not). 

Am I correct in understanding that Dataflows do not count against the 10GB Workspace limt?

Hi @mmace1 

If the 12 Datatflows are the once that are feeding the Dataset than the size of each of them is included in thata Data set.

Good point, though in this case -most of the dataflows do *not* feed into that dataset.

I think this should answer our question!

Thanks!  I had founrd that first link - it shows that one can't see the size of the Dataflows (though I voted for that feature yesterday!)

I'm still not 100% certian if Dataflows count against the 10GB-per-Workspace limit  - though seemingly the answer is no?

The answer is most likely no because Dataflows are stored in a different entity.
