AshDil · ‎03-27-2022

Hi,

I have created a dataflow in workspace in Power bi service. But other user not able to see and connect the dataflow that is created from Power bi desktop.

Please let me know how to resolve it.

Hi @AshDil ,

In this case, an authorized user has no dataflow in obtaining data, or all authorized users except the creator cannot obtain the dataflow. If it is the latter, check the permission configuration, if it is the former,it may because users save the Power BI dataflows permissions information of another account in Power BI Desktop, the connect information may not be the same as the Power BI Desktop account.

We can try to use “Files” – “Options and settings” – “data source Settings”, then find “Power BI Dataflows” in “Global Permission”, then clear Permissions of it.

Connect the Power BI Dataflows again and sign in as the current user, then you can see the Dataflows of your current account.

Best Regards

@AshDil in Power bi desktop, go to options and settings-> data source settings and make sure they are using the correct user name to connect to the dataflow.

@AshDil do they have permission on the workspace in which you create this dataflow?
