Helper IVScheduled refresh has been disabled
I had the following error pop-up on my report recently:
- Data source errorScheduled refresh is disabled because at least one data source is missing credentials. To start the refresh again, go to this dataset's settings page and enter credentials for all data sources. Then reactivate scheduled refresh.
I've checked my source file, which is a standard .xls file that I have saved in a shared file in SharePoint. For some odd reason, when I go to edit the credentials, the Authentication Method only shows, "Windows without impersonation" and I can select any privay level setting, only to have it just freeze while it loads indefinitely. What am I missing?

Hello, Alta88
I can see you didn't use Sharepoint folder connector, but you used your local files, at least from the Path that I can see in the shot that starts with C:\..., that'S never good practice.
Make sure you get your sharepoint online path, usually in "tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/YourTeam or something like that.Here's link on Sharepoint folder:

Alta88I see; ok, that makes better sense now. So I just need to change my source to connect to the sharepoint location of the file?

Yes, basically, and then reupload it to you workspace and configure it again.

Ok, so I'm about there but it won't take my new URL path. Is there a specific way to input the new path?

Ok, got it to work. Thanks for your help!
