New dataflow save unsuccessful, can't correct issue as "newer version saved" when there is not

[sonja_aberdeen]

I spent a couple hours working on a dataflow then tried to save it. Power BI wasn't happy about something so the save was unsuccessful, but then when trying to edit the table in question I received the error message:

"There was a problem opening your dataflow. Operation could not complete because a newer version of this dataflow was saved since you started editing."

... However the save wasn't successful so there wasn't a newer version for me to access. I can't click on any action on any table or do anything at all to the dataflow without receiving that error message. I tried to create a new dataflow in the same workspace and it let me load the unsaved dataflow again, however I had the same issue there with not being able to save it or edit it.

I will obviously be saving as I go from now on, however I wanted to flag this bug as I imagine it has caused/will cause others strife too.

Hi @sonja_aberdeen 

You mean you can create and save dataflow in the workspace now, right? If so, compared to a bug, it is more of a temporary error. May I know have you ever saved something like request id or other information that can be used to further investigate it?

Hi Caiyun - unfortunately I did not! When I have some time I'll try to recreate the issue and take note of any ids. Thanks, Sonja
