Power BI Desktop : Unable to Sign In
I am unable to publish a report through power bi it shows "Sorry we encountered an error while trying to sign you in, Details : The browser based authentication dialog failed to complete Reason...
** Authentication Issue
I tried turning off my firewall and running my windows defender but that didn't work.
I enabled the stack trace in Power BI and saw the error messages. There is an issue with PowerBI being able to authenticate my username. For TFS and some other applications I believe it connects automatically to my vpn once I log in but I noticed it does not with Power BI.
I went in and made sure that my VPN was connected and then it worked. It prompted to restart the Power BI desktop but then I was able to login.
