Connect to a website that has credential
Got a similar issue and no solution in place so far.
PBI documentation is not even mentioning the newly released "advanced" option. So no clue how to use the authentification options properly.
My topic: need to pull data from a website. URL is being redirected to the authentification page, requiring to log in. After entering login credentials I need to navigate to the proper side with the data being displayed.
Any solution in place?
I was able to get a password prompt, but now Im getting "The credentials provided are invalid" although I can type the url, username, and password in a browser and it works great!! No dual auth, basic login screen.
Here is how I was abel to get a prompt:
- "get data" -> web
- Type in URL (https)
- receive "Unable to connect" message
- click edit, now you have a "open file as" option select html then click ok
- and now you have a username and password prompt.
I am having the same issue showing in your screen shots. Have you received any update from anybody?
Getting the same issue with credentials. My site has Basic authorisation and I am able to log on to the page through web browser while Power BI returns 'The credentials provided are invalid'. Any ideas how to solve this?
check there is option like which level you need to apply the credentials.
I don't understand the first step "get data" > web.
What do i have to do exactly? Thanx for the explaining
