Power BI Desktop - Unable to pull from OData feed using Token authentication
- Anonymous9 years ago
Hi r_beacroft,
If you connect to OData feed using the following entry, and then enter your password, are you able to get desired result?If not, add a new blank query in Power BI Desktop, then paste one of the following codes in Advanced Editor and check if you get expected result.
let Source = OData.Feed("URL", null, [Headers = [Authorization = "Bearer Your token" ] ]) in Sourcelet Source = Web.Contents("URL", [Headers=[#" Authorization " = "Bearer Your token"]]) in SourceThere are a similar thread and blog for your reference.

In Power BI Desktop it works fine. But after publishing and trying to schedule automatic refresh I don't get a connection. Edit credentials
What exactly do I have to provide in the credentials in Power BI Service?
I tried several methods with/without "" but get "The credentials provided for the OData source are invalid"
| Status code: | 400 |
I used:
Authentication method
Key
Account key
Bearer ........
Privacy level setting for this data source
Organizational
I also tried:
"Bearer ........."
What do I wrong?
SOLVED
I had to use "Anonymous", "Organizational" and skip connection test

Hey Bavix, I am trying to do a similar solution, maybe you did it in PowerBi Report Server Locally. Where did you set the Organizational option and skip the connection test?

Hi kdhawan,
I was activating the automatic refreshing in PBI Service, not in Report Server.
