Dataflow does not keep/save Gateway configuration and shows "specify how to connect"

Hi.

 

All my dataflows are asking for connection configuration every time that I use the Edit option. This is happening for few days ago.

 

The dataflow from the image bellow is working fine:

When I use the Edit option the "specify how to connect" message appears:

If I click on "Configure connection" button, there is no Gateway associated to this dataflow:

Then I go to Project Options to set the Gateway:

Now I can see and refresh the data:

If I use the Edit option it asks for the connection again, as the first time, with no gateway.

Why isn't it saving the gateway configuration and showing the "specify how to connect" message everytime?

 

Tks,

Gabriel

Hi @v-yiruan-msft .

 

Tks for your reply but this article does not help.

 

The problem is that the dataflow does not save gateway information

 

I use a lot of organization tenants and can see this behavior on all tenants. This issue start few days ago, maybe last week.

 

Tks.

Hi Gabriel,

 

I'm having the exact same issue, did you figure it out?

 

Do you know if it has anything to do with the browser cache or it's a Dataflow problem?

 

Let me know.

 

Thank you,

 

Carlos
