    lrockwell,

    How do you connect to Salesforce, using Power BI Desktop or Salesforce content pack in Power BI Service?

    If you use Power BI Desktop, go to File->Options and Settings->Data Source Settings, find the Salesforce data source, click “Edit permissions” to change credential.

    However, if you connect to Salesforce content pack in Power BI Service, firstly delete the existing Salesforce dataset in Service, then re-connect to the Salesforce content pack by using InPrivate Browsing in IE.

    Regards,
    Lydia
