    If you import data from an Excel sheet with a Dataflow, then the column names must not contain blank spaces. Example: column name = 'home address' is not valid.

    @Pekka24 I did not understand the solution. Can you please explain it? I am facing same issue.

    Another solution to this problem not listed here is the name of the actual dataflow might have a space at the end or the front. This seems to be the only naming step that does not auto fix it self.  From what I've seen the columns in the data flow will automatically delete the space at the end of name if it is entered.

    In my situation, the error was specific to the literal title of the dataflow, which is the "Name" column in your list of dataflows. Not realizing, I had a leading whitespace in the title from duplicating the flow and renaming it.
