Clearing data preview cache in data flow

I was unit testing my dataflow in debug mode. I have to test bunch of scenarios to test by tweeking the data in the source and preview data to see if it has reflected. What I noticed is that data preview window is not clearing cache despite I used fetch from sources option and also used reset. Not sure if the new feature introduced recently to "fetch from sources" is working properly.

Is there any known issue? any work around for this to reset/clear cache?

Thanks in advance.

    @Devender Bejju - I got a confirmation from product team that they have identified a bug and are working on fixing it. I do not have an ETA at this point but will keep this thread posted as soon as I hear back from the team about the fix.

    But in the meantime, please use the below workaround to unblock from this issue.

    Appreciate much for reporting this here.

    10/15/2023 Update:
    @Devender Bejju Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A forum and posting your query.

    Thanks for reporting the issue, looks like an issue with Refetch from sources feature. It is not working as expected.

    We have escalated this issue to respective product team to further investigate and will get back to you as soon as we have an update.

    In the meantime, to mitigate the issue, please change the source dataset to a different one and do a preview and come to source settings and repoint to your actual dataset to preview the latest data from your source file (Sorry this is something not feasible but while the product team look into this issue, please use this workaround. I will also let you know if I figure out any other better workarounds).

    Sorry for your inconvenience and appreciate for reporting this issue.
