    Hi, I think this might work.

     

    After changing all your current dataflow to point to valid credentials, do the following:

    • From your workspace with the dataflow > select the workflow > ... > 'Export .json'
    • Click New > Dataflow > select 'Import Model' and select your exported .json file from previous step.
    • A new version of your dataflow is created with a (1) at the end of the name
    • Delete the old Dataflow and rename your new dataflow with the same name

    The new Dataflow will only have the valid credentials (no errors if you made the changes correctly).  You may have to relink any reports or datasets that use the flows to the new one.

     

    I have not figured out any method for simply removing unwanted connections.
