Dataflow > Standard Entity identified as Computed Entity, can't refresh Dataflow without Premium.

Hi,

 

I'm setting our a Dataflow in our "Test Corporate Insights" workspace.

This dataflow includes 3 Entities. 

In the "Editor", the Entities are identified as Standard (there is no lightning bolt icon over any).

In the Workspace settings, I cannot Refresh my Dataflow, because I see the notification: This dataflow contains computed entities, which require Premium to refresh. To enable refresh, upgrade this workspace to Premium capacity.

 

There is a lightning bolt logo over my "New Business Opportunities" entity. But I think it is Standard, not Calculated.

 

Is there a step within my entity that is not supported?

 

Thanks,

James Russell

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Did you merge or appned your tables in dataflow? As the online document, we can only use computed entities on Power BI Premium.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Did you ever figure out what was causing this to happen? We have the same problem.

Thanks,

Ed

Think I figured out the issue - sometimes operations which do result in computed entities don't show the lightning bolt on the icon in the Query Editor - seems like a bug: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Computed-entities-in-Dataflows-not-showing-lightning-bolt/id....

 

Hope this helps,

Ed
