We are facing a problem with a ODX data lake storage table. The problems are appearing at two points in our Data Warehouse:The ODX transfer tasks gives the warning “Table folder X is used by another table with id Y” When using the ‘Preview’ option from TX interface in ODX storage we get the error “The azure data lake gen2 data storage table folder has invalid meta data. The ODX must transfer the table again”Using ‘Synchronize objects’ on ODX server does not do anything at all. Moreover, executing the table in DSA still works without errors and seems to contain new data. Also, in our Azure storage account we can see the transfer task adds new versions of the table every day (scheduled transfer task) even though it gives us the warning 1).By the way, the table ID that the error on ODX transfer task gives us does not correspond with the TableId that we can see in the _model.json file in the corresponding folder in our Azure storage account. Where should the table ID from the first error p

Hi, I have created and populated a small table in Dataverse using a Power App.There are no problems accessing and reading data from the table with Power BI Desktop.But I don't really understand how to use CData's connector (Microsoft Dataverse (23.0.8749.0) 64bit). Does anyone know which fields to fill in for the authentication itself? Username and password or equivalent. BRAnders

Hi,I have a working connection to an S3 bucket with CSV files, using the CData CSV connector.I would like to create a solution where I read only the latest file added to the bucket.Calling the stored procedure “ListFiles” (https://cdn.cdata.com/help/RVJ/ado/pg_sp-listfiles.htm) in a query table returns a table of the files, with filename and created timestamp.Is it possible to call ListFiles in an .rsd file? If so, I think it would be possible to access the created timestamp in another .rsd file using a query slicer which can be used to get the latest file.Have anyone solved this problem, or something similar? I am using the latest version, 6512.1. 

We are using the Azure Data Factory - PostgreSQL 14.0.0.0 data source connector and cannot run the synchronize task. We have selected ‘All tables’ in the data source setup but get an error in ADF:“Failure happened on 'Source' side. ErrorCode=UserErrorInvalidValueInPayload,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Failed to convert the value in 'queryTimeout' property to 'System.TimeSpan' type. Please make sure the payload structure and value are correct.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.DataContracts,''Type=System.ArgumentException,Message=Object of type 'System.Int64' cannot be converted to type 'System.String'.,Source=mscorlib”The error seems to be related to the ‘Command timeout’ setting in the TX portal, which we set to 1440 but ADF wants it to be a ‘System.TimeSpan’ type?When we want to use ‘Select tables’ on the ODX data source the screen runs ‘Search tables’ for a split second and then the results remain empty, no tables appear at all.The Linked Ser

I have a rest interface loading via ODX in V20 into an Azure Data Lake.Recently an infrastructure change to the server made the Rest Endpoint timeout (it has an IP whitelist and the server IP was removed).This resulted in the Synchronization task determining that there were no tables available to load, even though there are multiple custom RSD files that have been generated and the CData Rest driver has been configured to Never generate Schema files. The IP has been restored to the whitelist and the Rest interface is working again (after multiple days of the ODX loading nothing). Unfortunately the Meta Data for every table has been flagged as invalid. When I run the ODX load every table comes back with an error that the table has already been used by a table with a different GUID. And If I run the synchronize task on the ODX it deletes the mapping of every table connected to the particular ODX source (40+ tables).I cannot even run a preview of the data from the Gen 2 storage through Ti

Hello,Our ODX gets stuck whenever we make a request to it (be it synch, transfer, or viewing a log). Then we see the error message in attachment and usually we see a second ODX all of the sudden. Any idea what may be causing it? 

Is there a way to get the timetamp of when a table was transferred from source to ODX Server? Like the DW_Timestamp. The only system field i can find is odx_batch_number. 

Is there a way to remove tables from ODX storage that have been deleted in the desktop, similar to the SQL Database cleanup tool available in the DW? My use case is when SQL Storage is used for the ODX.The “Remove unused object” option does not drop tables it seems. The Storage Management Task is good of course, but we can’t use it for deleted data sources.Let’s say I have transferred a large table hundreds of times into my ODX and then deleted the data source. Can I remove them without having to drop the tables manually in SSMS?Best,Pontus 

Hi community,I’ve a question about the ‘PK’ table that is created in the ODX when you enabled the ‘Handle primary key updates’ and ‘Handle primary key deletes’.I’ve noticed the ODX database (SQL Database) is growing rapidly in disk space after enable an incremental load schedule to reload data every 5 minutes. When I used the default SQL ‘Disk usage by top tables’ I noticed the PK tables are the biggest in terms of disk space.My PK table of the GL Entry table contains 4.5 billion rows! And is 95 GB. While my DATA table contains only 118 million records.When I query the PK table and filter the primay key in this table on 1 value. This value is saved 75  times in this table. For every odx_batch_number (odx_batchnumber 0 – 74). Is this normal? I think it is a bit strange that my PK tables are the biggest tables in the ODX in terms of disk space.Even when I run the storage management task. It doesn’t clean the PK table’s. It always contains the primary key for every odx batch load.The cust

Hi,I’m trying to load an Excel file from a OneLake. As OneLake is a rebranded version of Data Lake Gen2, my assumption is that it should be possible to use existing CData features to load data.I have a working setup where we use CData’s Excel provider (version 23.0.8585.0) to load an Excel sheet from a Data Lake Gen2 I explicitly configured the connection type as ADLS Gen2. Actually I was hoping that this configuration would work after changing the [Azure Storage Account] and [URI] to the OneLake parameters, but unfortunately that doesn’t work Error message:  Looking into the logs, I see that CData tries to connect to *.dfs.core.windows.net. However, the uri of OneLake is *.onelake.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com. Manually entering the abfss:// uri did not work here Is it correct that CData is not yet compatible with OneLake, even though techniques under the hood are similar? Documentation on https://cdn.cdata.com/help/RXJ/ado/default.htm does not mention it (yet).Did anyone manage to load da

We have observed an inconsistency in the field order when adding a new table from the ODX to the DSA. Depending on whether we use the "Add New Table" or the "Add New Table with Field Selection" option, the fields are either randomly arranged or aligned with the source database.When we use “Add New Table” we notice that all fields are somewhat randomly arranged. When we use “Add New Table with Field Selection” and then check all the boxes the order is exactly as in the source database (as expected).  How come that there is a difference? Is this on purpose? Thanks (TimeXtender 6346.1)

Hello,We’re getting the following error when executing a table in DSA.ODX object synchronization detects no changes, and our ODX source is synched as well.I’m guessing the ORDER is an order by… Any idea what causes it? Thanks

Hi, Please can you suggest on the following : Export to Data Lake is depreciated by Microsoft in Oct 2024 this year. So, what is the best alternate solution to extract the data from ERP FO solution for reporting? How to extract data from Field Service & CE ERP solution? OData connector is not good option as it is very slow & I cannot build incremental load on this. 

Hi, I created a field StorageReportIndicator in a table to rank the records in the table. This rank is a SQL window function RANK which combines table fields initially loaded from the data source (StorageUnit and ReferenceDateTime below) and lookup fields via table joins (DSA.Datum table, fields WeekKey and DayOfWeek).  Goal is to have a rank to determine the first record of each week for each storageUnit. The outcome afer execution is that all records have rank 1 which is incorrect. I verified this with the same SQL statement in Management Studio.Could it be that this window function does not have the right result since the lookup is done after the rank is calculated? Note, the table is not historical and incremental. Anyone with experience with this case and is there a proper solution?

As shown in Figure Syncronize Task is sucessfully completed, but Transfer Task gets an below error “System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException: SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 ”PM even though my date range starts from 2002 and ends at 2023.Even though after suggestion by @Christian Hauggaard i have made changes in setting of Date Conversition and selected MS SQL Min/Max option, but once i change the setting then i gets the below error for same process,“System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Execution Timeout Expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The wait operation timed out”(This error is geeting for those tables who has Date Column, and date column has such data (for example 03/01/2022 6:42 PM ) )​​​​​​​What are steps to solve above error? 

Hi all, I have an data source that gets daily refreshed in the ODX. With some tables, I have encountered the following error. Does anyone knows how I can resolve this? Thanks in advance!

While Running Transfering Task im getting error “Transfer Data from Data Sourse with Incremental Load”after appling incremenatl Load, again im getting Same error.

Hi,I am trying to connect to a REST API that uses OAuth2 authentication.The API documentation is very clear on what to include in the authentication:  I have entered all this information in the REST CData provider and I can successfully use the provider’s “Authorize OAuth” button.However, when I try to test the connection, error “401 - Unauthorizated” is returned.In the API documentation, they state that the token needs a prefix “Bearer “.I suspect my error is caused by the REST CData provider sending the authorization header without the Bearer prefix, like so:Authorization: {ACCESS_TOKEN}Which the API of course does not accept. Is there any way to include a prefix to the token in the authorization header?

Hi, can you provide me with detailed instructions on how to set it up?

When configuring the CData Microsoft Sharepoint (23.0.8669) provider for extracting a Sharepoint List, we encounter a problem with the button ‘Authorize OAuth’. We are configuring the data source in ODX Server 20.10.40 and TX version is also 20.10.40.The following settings are configured:According to the CData documentation AzureAD should be used as Auth Scheme to leverage OAuth to authenticate, we also use this exact same setting and the same app registration for another data source using the Excel Online provider for which all is ok.However, when using ‘Authorize OAuth’ with the Sharepoint provided, we get the following error:What could be causing this? Changing the file or location for OAuth does not matter at all, we have also tried other versions of the provider but they all give this error. Also, changing Initiate OAuth to ‘REFRESH’ does not have an effect.
