Azure Connection
I have a number of PBI dashboards each using Azure analysis server cubes and up until today they all ran fine.
Today, I try to open them and I get the following error message "Windows authentication isn't supported in DirectQuery mode for this data source".
I don't use a DirectQuery for my dashboards, and a colleague has been able to open one of them without problem.
My PBI Desktop version seems to have been updated to Dec 2020, whereas my colleague is still using Nov 2020 so I suspect there is some problem with Dec 2020.
It's very frustrating and I don't seem to be able to find a way to revert back to the Nov 2020 version.
I'm hoping someone can help with a solution soon. Thx Paul.
