Data Flow source options - can not change back from using query to table

I tried to use the source option on input to use a query instead of loading the entire table. Now I can not seem to change it back. The query field keeps being a required field even after I have changed the option. If I keep the query field I can not publish unless I change the query, data factory does not seem to recognise the change.

Our work around has been to put in a "Select *" but it seems unnecessary so I am wondering if this is an error in ADF or if I am missing something?

    When hover over the "abc" next to the your query expression, do you see a trashcan icon? You can click it to delete your expression.

    BTW, what you've entered there is a string expression for your query that uses string interpolation. All you need to do with a query is just type in your query without quotes.

    Yes, I have tried pressing the trashcan and changing back to "Table" but it seems there is some sort of issue because I can not publish. It seems like data factory does not identify the changed setting since it asks me to change to the "Table option"
