WorkspaceAdminDisconnectStorageAccountFailedStorageInUseException:The workspace must not have datafl

Hi , 

We are trying to configure ADLS Gen2 with our Microsoft Fabric Workspace to enable taking backups of the Semantic Models.

However , we are getting the below error when setting this up.

"WorkspaceAdminDisconnectStorageAccountFailedStorageInUseException: The workspace must not contain any dataflows when changing the storage account"

We do not have any dataflows in our Fabric workspace but still getting the above error.

 

Has anyone encountered this issue and found a resolution?

Hi @Binu ,

 

Does this issue only occur in one workspace? Have you tried creating a new Fabric workspace to do this? If you have workspace admin privileges to make sure everything is visible, double-check that the workspace has dataflows.
