Problem connecting Power BI to SQL Server,

The error message says that an unauthorized device protected access-

Tengo Power BI PRO,

Question : How do I turn off the connection to the PRO account.

I cancel the account ?

Hi @jfuente ,

 

Could you share us some screenshots about the issue? I have not encountered the issue you mentioned. (device no access to the pro account?)

 

To my experience, it may mean credentials are not right. For changing or clearing them, please refer to these articles: 

Edit Or Remove Permission From Existing Data Source Connection From Power BI (c-sharpcorner.com);

Authentication with a data source | Microsoft Docs.

 

 

Best Regards,

Icey

@Syndicate_Admin , where are you getting this? If you are connecting using power bi desktop to SQL server, it means you login do not have access
