Can't sign in to Power BI Desktop to Publish a Report

[ezFlow]

Hi,

I can't seem to login to publish my report to a client's Power BI workspace.

I've installed the latest version lastest Power BI ver last week and its my first attempt since to publish.
- I have access to my clients MS 365

- I can access Power BI services on the client side

- I can connet with the same service account to my source and refresh the the data

- I have Office 365 license E5
- Power BI Pro is enabled

- Power BI free is also enalbled (Possibly Expired)
When I sign in, I'm stick on entering the Username screen time after time, I don't get forwarded to the Password screen.

Same issue, no luck with the "authentication browser" option.

@amitchandak  Reinstalling Power BI Desktop made no difference. The issue seems to be tenent specific.

I found a work around though.

1. Log into the client's Power BI service using your defualt browser
2. In Power BI Desktop go File->Options and settings->Options->Security and scroll down to Authentication Browser
3. Check 'Use my deafualt web browser' then click OK
4. Sign in to client with Power BI Desktop and the browser should handle the authentication

That worked for me anyhow. Not pretty but worked.

@ezFlow , Reinstall power bi if possible.

Also, check for any issue reported https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues

I'm having the same issue for one of my clients, the rest of my clients are OK.

Issue - cannot connect Power BI Desktop to publish to client's service, no option to enter password after email address is entered. I can connect Power BI Desktop to the client's dataflows etc without an issue.
