Hello!

I use powerBi desktop

I've tried to get data from Database and used wrong login/password. But after that I couldnt change this credentials. when i try to connect to this data source with the same name i dont see auth fields. Where can i change auth settings to data source?

Hi @az38,

 

You could change the data source credentials under Data source settings.

I have checked all data entrys and for the public one I have used "anonomus" and for the department internal, I could not use my current credentials, had to use Microsoft credentials. Schedule refresh is still not working due to missing credentials
