Hi @Anonymous ,

Seems like about credentials, please try to clear permissions in data source settings (Transform data->Data soucre settings-> Clear permissions) and reconnect it to try it again.

Or you can download the latest version of power bi desktop Jun 2020 to try to fix it.

 

Here are some simliar issues that you can refer:

  1. Power BI Desktop - Unable to use Get Data 
  2. Error message : Cannot create process.

@Anonymous does user has access to all the data source, maybe go to transform data and click refresh on each table and see which table fails to load, could be a permission issue. The first starting point to debug.
