Hi, @gordostogo 

As far as I’m concerned, the data sources in your dataflow correspond to the tables in your data flow, when you delete the tables(Queries) in the data flow, the corresponding data source will also be removed, you can try my steps:

1. Click on the data flow and edit table:

2. Select the tables corresponding to the data source you want to delete:

Then apply and close to check if the data source can disappear.

Creating a dataflow

Thank you very much!

Hi Fowmy,

I do not want to delete the dataflow because it feeds the dataset and report, I just want to delete three of the sources that are showing connected to the dataflow.

They are connected to your report, deleting them will cause the report to fail. can you provide more details on what exactly is needed?

I initially built the report attached to the first data set shown at the top of the lineage.  I added the other three on accident trying to get the data stored in a location where others can access it, thus leaving me with three other items.  Unfortunately, the other three I wasn't able to connect because of credential issues.  But I would like to get me back to where i was with the one source.    I really appreciate you taking time out of your day to help me.

First, click on edit your table in the data flow, click on manage connections, and then delete the undesired connection.

Why don't you delete the data flow if it has only this query or delete this particular query from the Data Flows
