Hi
I am trying to connect my PowerBi through a service called Obvience which is offered as a connection.
My end goal is to create a live-streaming weather reporting dashboard.
I cannot get past the first stage of authentication, embarrassing 😞
Anonymous, Windows, Basic or Key.
I have tried all of them and they all return with and error:
*Failed to update data source credentials: The credentials provided for the OData source are invalid. (Source at http://weatherservice-obvience.azurewebsites.net/NorthAmericaWeatherServices30Days.)*
Please can somebody assist me.
Regards
Lorcan
I would also like to know what should be used here. Their website offers no info whatsoever.

The link in the error requires a username/password authentication, can you access that link in a web brower? Is your problem that the username/password won't work in Power BI desktop while it works in a brower?
