Hello. Its possible to have multiple credentials associated to the same data source. We use an oracle database, but when new connection is trigger, the credentials set up is skipped and connected to the former credentials
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Lenastray ,
Credential information for connecting to the same data source in powerbi is unique. Once the authentication is successful, it will be automatically verified when connecting again and this step will be skipped. However, you can select multiple connection methods (import and direct query) for the same data source.
You can also change the credential information in the data source setting.
If the problem is still not resolved, please point it out. Looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Henry
