Hi All
I can access the sharepoint site (url) but when i click on get data and select either the hsarepoint folder or the ODatafeed i get an access denied error. Please advice.
Thanks
Hi @Anonymous ,
Try the following method:
1. If your site is Office365, please enter the organizational credential using the third option in the below screenshot. If your site is on-premise, use Windows credentials as you mentioned. In addition, make sure that you use the latest version of Power BI Desktop.
2. Create a new pbix file and clear the Permission the data source of SharePoint you used before under Edit Queries>> Data source setting>>Global Permissions>> find the Sharepoint source >> Clear Permissions.
Here are some similar posts, you can refer to:
SharePoint List Access to resource is forbidden
