3512857 - Prompt dialog is shown twice when opening an Optimized Design Experience story which has link variables set in SAP Analytics Cloud

• Prompt variables window pop up twice, for each model, when opening an SAC story.
• The story is created in Optimized Design Experience (ODE) mode. It is based on two live models which have variables. 
• The option "Clear Variables and Use Server-Defined Values" is checked in Variable settings.

1. Create a new story in Optimized Design Experience (ODE) mode.
2. Add a widget and use a live model which has variables as data source.
3. Add another widget and use another live model which has variables as data source.
4. Edit the linked variables and link the two models.
5. Save the story and open it again>> Two prompt variables for both models are shown one after one.

This behavior happens because there is an unlinked variable between the two models.

In order only one prompt appears, all variables for the linked datasets must be prompted for previously, therefore, all variables for the two models needs to be linked.
