Microsoft Project - OData feed authentication with microsoft account not available

[bileloues1]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to connect to Power BI with Microsoft Project online. I am following this guide but it's not working properly for me.

I already managed to connect my sharepoint (from a Teams channel) to powerBI using the Sharepoint datasource option. I noticed that the only credential that worked for my corporate account was Microsoft Account authentication option.

Sadly, this option is not available as you can see.  

I tried the change data source on Global permissions, but it's not showing.

Any recommendation?

Thanks,

Bilel

Remember that credentials are cached.  Once you tried a connection with the wrong credentials the connection won't work even if you then supply the right credentials.  

Go to Global Permissions. Remove all entries for your offending data source (all variations).  Then authenticate again, this time with the right credentials. And yes, for SharePoint Online you need to choose "Organizational account".
