    RE: Skip Validating Queries when saving a dataflow

    This really should be a step invisible to users and left as a state in the dataflow itself. you have no idea if the save action will commit so you're forced to sit and watch a spinner.
    I'd rather come back to it the next day and see an error/it failed than be in this state.

    Please skip or postpone validation if you cannot make it faster.
    Takes hours for 6 queried from excel from one drive.

    RE: Skip Validating Queries when saving a dataflow

    Currently, saving some dataflows can take LOTS of time - even an hour. Just to save.
    It's almost impossible to work when saving takes this long.
    Please, add an option to skip the validation when SAVING.
    Just as you have added "skip credential validation" in dataset refresh schedule (it saves lots of time!)
    Or somehow please make the dataflow saving faster.
    Thanks!
