What causes DF-AdobeIntegration-InvalidPartitionConfiguration?

The source transformation partition type is set to a mode (e.g., Hash, Round Robin) that is incompatible with the Adobe Analytics connector, which only supports Single partition mode. The number of partitions configured exceeds what the Adobe Analytics API can handle per data flow run. A data flow template was copied from another connector type and partition settings were not updated for Adobe Analytics

How do I fix DF-AdobeIntegration-InvalidPartitionConfiguration?

Open the failing data flow in ADF Studio and select the Adobe Analytics source transformation.. Go to the Optimize tab and change the partition option to 'Single partition' — Adobe Analytics does not support multi-partition reads in Mapping Data Flows.. If you need parallel ingestion, consider breaking the date range into multiple pipeline activities rather than using connector-level partitioning.. Test connection the linked service to confirm the account credentials remain valid after any configuration changes.

Power BI Refresh Error:
DF-AdobeIntegration-InvalidPartitionConfiguration

What does this error mean?

The ADF Mapping Data Flow Adobe Analytics connector has an invalid partition configuration. The source partitioning settings specify a partition type or count that the Adobe Analytics connector does not support.

Common causes

1The source transformation partition type is set to a mode (e.g., Hash, Round Robin) that is incompatible with the Adobe Analytics connector, which only supports Single partition mode
2The number of partitions configured exceeds what the Adobe Analytics API can handle per data flow run
3A data flow template was copied from another connector type and partition settings were not updated for Adobe Analytics

How to fix it

1Open the failing data flow in ADF Studio and select the Adobe Analytics source transformation.
2Go to the Optimize tab and change the partition option to 'Single partition' — Adobe Analytics does not support multi-partition reads in Mapping Data Flows.
3If you need parallel ingestion, consider breaking the date range into multiple pipeline activities rather than using connector-level partitioning.
4Test connection the linked service to confirm the account credentials remain valid after any configuration changes.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Adobe Analytics not support multiple partitions?

The Adobe Analytics connector reads from the Reporting API, which handles pagination and batching internally. Connector-level partitioning conflicts with this API's request model.

How do I speed up Adobe Analytics ingestion if I can't use partitions?

Split the date range across multiple parallel activities, each querying a subset. This achieves parallel ingestion without connector-level partitioning.

Does this affect my other connectors using the same data flow?

No — partition configuration errors are specific to the connector where they are set. Other sources or sinks in the same data flow continue using their own partition settings.
