    Please allow the connection to Dataflows' entities from Excel's Power Query.
    There are many cases when customers use Excel and not Power BI. But Dataflows can make the refresh process much faster for them.
    Thanks

    I'm very surprised to find out that this functionality doesn't already exist

    Definitively required to enable validating user input from an excel sheet.
    (The dataflow contains the consolidated "Reference data" from all Markets)
