SharePoint Access

Hello All,

 

So I tried to connect to a SharePoint list from PBI Desktop for the first time. I chose to connect anonymously as a test to see what happened and I was not able to connect. When I initiated the process again it did not give me the option to connect with my Windows credentials and just denies me access. Does anyone know how to reset this or force PBI to ask for my Windows/MS credentials?

 

Thanks,

 

AG

@Aron_Moore Thank you for the help. To clarify, I did chose to "Edit" the permissions and that allowed me to update to use my Windows/MS credentials.
