Power BI Refresh Error:
DF-AdobeIntegration-InvalidPrivacyRegulation

What does this error mean?

The ADF Mapping Data Flow Adobe Analytics connector received an invalid privacy regulation label. The privacy regulation value specified in the connector configuration is not a recognized value for the Adobe Analytics Privacy API.

Common causes

  • 1The privacy regulation field in the Adobe Analytics source settings specifies a label (e.g., 'GDPR', 'CCPA') using a format or value the connector does not accept
  • 2A recent update to the Adobe Analytics connector changed the expected format for privacy regulation identifiers and the data flow was not updated

How to fix it

  1. 1Open the failing data flow in ADF Studio and go to Adobe Analytics source transformation settings.
  2. 2Locate the privacy regulation property and verify the value matches the accepted format in the ADF connector documentation — an enum value, not a free-form string.
  3. 3Review the ADF Adobe Analytics connector release notes for any changes to accepted privacy regulation values.
  4. 4If the privacy regulation setting is not required for your use case, remove it and re-run the data flow to confirm whether this was the cause.

Frequently asked questions

What are the valid privacy regulation values for the ADF Adobe Analytics connector?

The accepted values correspond to specific regulation identifiers supported by the Adobe Analytics Privacy API. Check the Microsoft connector documentation for the current list.

Do I need to set a privacy regulation value at all?

Only if your organization requires privacy-labeled data export from Adobe Analytics. For standard reporting extraction, this field can be omitted without affecting data flow behavior.
