I am tryign to connect PowerBI Desktop to a Sharepoint Folder.
I have access to the site and the folder and sync the contents locally using the OneDrive client, but this doesnt support auto refresh AFAIK.
When I try to use a Sharepoint folder as the source I get this window
and no matter what configuration I choose I get the same error
I can access the site and the folder using SSO with my current credentials in a browser, but I get a similar message if I try to connect using PowerBI online.
I have set this, but it made no difference.
Any ideas anyone?
Solved! Go to Solution.
If it's Sharepoint Online, you need to use the Microsoft Account option (w/ or w/o the Authenticate in web browser option).
