I have a datasets (dataset1) in a workspace (workspace1) connected (import mode) to a dataflow (dataflow1) in another workspace (workspace2)
When I view the lineage of the dataset1, I can see the dataflow
When I view the lineage of the dataflow1, it doesn't show where this dataflow is used i.e. I can't see it is used in to dataset1 in workspace1.
Is this the expected behaviour of the lineage, i.e. you cannot see the artifacts of a dataflow (or any datasource) if it is used in another workspace?

I think you can build a script with the Power Bi Rest API. You can first take all the datasets:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/admin/datasets_getdatasetsasadmin
Once you have those in a table or dataframe you can run for each one of them the request for data sources:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/admin/datasets_getdatasourcesasadmin
After you organize your json response for each row you might be able to check the connectionString or connectionDetails looking for dataflows in order to see which datasets are using dataflows.
Hope that helps,

Thanks @ibarrau makes sense. Is there any othe way to find out where a dataflow is used?
Just want to know the impact before we delete a dataflow

Hi. Yes, that's the expected result microsoft has proposed. It will show only the sources of the components. When you check view in the dataflow it can't show in which dataset it's used because that's not the objetive, that's not a data source. The dataflow is the data source for the dataset. That's why you can only see it from one direction.
Hope that make sense
