Hi @Anonymous ,

Choose between the following authentication options:

  • Select Organizational account if your organization is using Azure Active Directory to manage users.

  • Select Personal Access Token if you want to use a personal access token.

  • Select Basic if you are connecting to a personal organization. This option also supports alternate credentials, but it is not recommended as unlike personal access tokens, this login doesn't expire and can't be scoped to limit access to your data.

You need to make sure your credential is correct and current credential have permission to access corresponding item. You could refer to Connect to Analytics with Power BI Data Connector  for details.
