Having to change all data source credentials manually after password reset
Hi renevandeveen ,
Power BI will save the data source credentials. You could edit the credentials in Options and Settings, Date source settings.
Best Regards,

That's exactly what I (have to) do. The problem here is two fold:
1. I would expect these credentials to be updated automatically since it is a single account sign in, but using my Windows credentials
2. The fact that I have to update the credentials individually. For this issue I found a solution: I choose "Global Permissions" instead of "Data Sources in Current File". Here I was able to adjust the credentials for the root folder that contains all the different data files. This way I only have to manually update 1 data source instead of 30, since these data source settings are then also used for the files in this folder.
