HI @SLR_PBI,

I can't reproduce your issue on my side, I test on the latest 64-bit version of power bi desktop and works.(Version: 2.79.5768.1082 64-bit March 2020) What version of power bi desktop are you test? Please share more detailed information to help us reproduce your scenario.

In addition, you can also check on your network status, group policy, and firewall settings if they block power bi requests.

Hi @SLR_PBI,

I think it may be related to the pro trial license, it unlocked some pro features but it still not fully works with each pro feature. (e.g. some features require the backend verification which only exists in pro license )
Probably you can try to test with a pro version.

In addition, a new version power bi desktop released.(Version: 2.80.5803.1061) You can also test with it to confirm if your issue is related to old versions.
