Persistent issue: refresh is disabled because at least one data source is missing credentials.

I have a PowerBi report published to service connected to several data sources housed on Sharepoint that throws this error every time I want to refresh the report. The only means I have for refreshing the data is to 1. refresh locally on Desktop 2. republish to service. I have re-entered my credentials numerous times, only to find this error persists when I try to refresh through service. 

 

Other users than myself update the underlying data sets (csv files) in a common sharepoint folder to which the powerbi report is connected via web link. Could this contribute to this error?

    Could you post the actual error to help troubleshoot?

      Data source error: Scheduled refresh is disabled because at least one data source is missing credentials. To start the refresh again, go to this dataset's settings page and enter credentials for all data sources. Then reactivate scheduled refresh.

        And when I follow these directions, I actually can't access the Data Source Credentials in the settings tab.
