Hello,
I have a dataflow gen2 artifact in one of our workspaces. This artifact includes 11 queries. For some queries, I have added data destinations without any issues. For some others within the same artifact, I was not able to do so because the adding icon (+) is unclickable as shown in the pic below. Any reason why is that and how to solve it?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous
Thanks for using Microsoft Fabric Community.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks

Even after waiting for the entity to load, the "Add Data Destination" option never appears on my ribbon. Could there be a prior configuration that I am missing?
It looks like you are using gen1 dataflows, which don't support data destinations.
