Hi parry2k, thanks for your response.
My question is: "How do I query the data so it doesn't run the windows batch file?"
The structure of my flow is this: Windows Batch File ---> Output CSV <---- PBI Reading the CSV
Currently, despite having no connection between the CSV and windows batch file, it still runs and gives me an authentication error, whereas I would expect it to query the CSV like any other.
Does this clear it up?

ashleylinkewich not at all, where you get the authentication error, Power BI has nothing to do with Batch file until I'm missing something here.

parry2k This is the error I get:
I agree, PBI should have nothing to do with the file, and it acts normally when I first establish the connection to the output CSV, but as soon as I modify the query and apply the changes, I get this error.
