Need to make the PBI Dataset refresh dependent on the PBI Dataflow completion

Hi All, I am trying to automate a simple process:

after receiving an e-mail letting my team know that the database has completed a process,
load one or more PBI dataflows and
wait for the dataflow(s) to complete and then
refresh the PBI the datasets using the dataflows as their source.

I thought that the Configure Run After is supposed to be taking care of the dependency of the dataflow refreshes completing before kicking off the datasets but instead the dataset is kicked off a second later, not waiting for completion of the dataflows. This particular data flow takes about 10 minutes to run, so I know it did not wait long enough as per the picture below.

Can someone please help me what I am doing wrong? Thanks!
