object reference not set to an instance Dataflow
Hi,
Please can someone help me out with this error?
I have a data flow that was created some months ago from the service. Everything looks normal and I could preview my data import from the MySql database.
Recently, (last week) I tried making changes to the dataflow, but once I clicked on the edit query side, I popped out with this error
"object reference not set to an instance "
I tried creating a new data flow and still faced the same error. Can someone help me out?

BIIS That's a tough one to troubleshoot. Perhaps this will help: Data Flow run failed(error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object), could you help to check the reason? - Microsoft Q&A

Hi BIIS
1. Does this error only appear on the service? If the refresh operation is performed in Power BI Desktop, will this error occur?
2. Have you updated the mysql driver recently? Try installing the previous version of the driver.

It only appears on the service.
