Feature details

We're making the following reliability and experience improvements for saving and editing dataflows by introducing draft and published dataflow concepts:

  • At any point in authoring a dataflow, your progress will be automatically saved to a draft version of the dataflow. You can resume editing the draft at a later time, and—when you're satisfied with the changes—you can publish the dataflow and refresh it.

  • As part of improving the end-to-end save experience, we'll defer validations and publishing of the dataflow to a background process. We'll also provide an experience to review and fix dataflow validation and publishing errors, if they exist.
