Login Pop Up
Hi Mitul123
This behavior happens because you are not signed in to Power BI Desktop. When you insert elements from the Insert tab (buttons, shapes, etc.), Power BI tries to access features that require authentication, so it keeps asking you to log in.
To fix this:
-
Sign in from the top-right corner of Power BI Desktop (one-time login should stop the pop-ups).
-
Make sure you are on the latest version of Power BI Desktop.
-
If the issue continues, clear cached credentials under File > Options and settings > Data source settings, then sign in again.
If none of these steps help, it may be a tenant/organization policy issue or a recent bug, and you should open a support ticket with Microsoft.

But this problem not happened before
Hi Mitul123
That it worked fine in the past does not contradict what I mentioned. Even a small change — for example, an update in Power BI Desktop, the operating system, or a network/security policy in your organization — can trigger this login behavior. The recommendations I gave remain the right steps to try.
