What are dataflows in Power BI?

Refresh data flow and then dataset is a helpful prompt. Thanks for the content.

Is it possible to use Python in the dataflow to transform data? Thanks

GOD bless you !

Hello, as I using dataflows more questions arise. If I have created a dataflow and then I am importing some tables to a power bi report, I have duplication of these data? Thank you in advance!

Thank you very much for the good video!

When you refresh a dataset that uses a dataflow as a source does it run queries against the database?

Hello! Thank you for this video! How many dataflows can we have per workspace, if the workspace is backed by a premium capacity?

thanks Wyn, great video. but wondering is it possible to create a mySQL data flow. doesn't want to work for me. I'm trying to get a schedule refresh set up that isn't dependant on a personal gateway, i.e. works without my computer needing to be switched on

Hi Wyn, are there limitation to how many files you can use in a dataflow. What I mean by this, I am saving numerous excel(xlsx format) files to SharePoint and the aim is to do my mashup or ETL process in the dataflow area and then merge the files as one table. We use Power BI Premium

Hi Wyn- Im late to the party on this one-- I dont have a Pro Licence, is thata reason why i cannot create a new dataflow?

I still struggle to see why this is better or gives you anything different from a shared dataset.. well presented video though . Thanks

"You've gotta refresh the dataflow, then refresh the dataset", looks sideways, "Hope you found that useful".
Reminds me of Michael Scott speaking to the TV crew 😅

Really great intro that avoids all the jargon. I really don't understand why Microsoft has bad naming convention for arguably the same products/features.

Hello Sir . I wish to connect an excel to a data flow. Please help.

thank you

It wasn’t showed that the whole point is that the single dataset can use multiple data flows, so essentially model will consist of data flows only (or mostly).

Finally, someone who has the good sense to present things simply and without jargon.
I wonder, why does Microsoft give a different name to the same things?

On the one hand, they seek to simplify and integrate everything, on the other hand, it seems that they are happy to shuffle the user with 3 or 4 different words for the same thing.
Thank you so much.

Post Production Note: my comment re Merging Tables - as long as the "helper" tables aren't loaded then this is fine, it's only when merging tables (entities) that are also loaded in their own right that you need Premium.

Diagram View looks great

that is great, Wyn. thanks for sharing. I will use it in my job.

awesome and thank you for sharing
