- Searching for tables for the mapping sets in the Prepare instance (MDW) would not find tables where the data source had "data on demand" enabled and no execution tasks were added on the data source
- Listing constraint suggestions on the Prepare instance (MDW) would not find tables where the data source had "data on demand" enabled and no execution tasks were added on the data source
- Adding new view fields to a standard view was blocked after selecting a field in the overview pane
- Some Ingest instance (ODX) execution logs sometimes went missing due to a timing issue in the Ingest instance (ODX) execution logic

- Some Semantic dialogs could only resize horizontally
- Tabular Security DAX was incorrect when having more than one setup
