Feature details
When users are done authoring or making changes to a dataflow, they select Save. The save action is currently coupled with validation, and validating the dataflow can take a very long time. Previously, users aren't able to leave the screen, and they have to wait until after validation completes to see their changes.
With this update, users can save a dataflow, leave the screen, and continue working. Validation now takes place in the background so users can save the dataflow without friction.
