Hi All,
Trying to create a new entity in the CDS based on a SharePoint list.
Everything works up until i hit the refresh settings section. And then it says "Unexpected Error".
Any suggestions on a solution would be appreciated?
Thanks
Jon
Hi @JonMarkillie,
How are you creating entities based on the SharePoint list? I assume you're using data flows? If so, make sure the O365 account you're running the Dataflow under has MFA disabled and that it has CDS privileges by having a security role such as "System Administrator" assigned.
To assign a role you can follow these steps: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/database-security#assign-security-roles-to-users-in-an-environment-that-has-a-common-data-service-database
Hope this helps!
Thanks for this.
Turns out our IT team have restricted access to this. I'll link in with them directly.
