Sign out of Google accounts used for accessing Google BigQuery

Hi,

 

I'm working with multiple datasets from Google BigQuery as sources for various reports. Each of these BigQuery datasets require a different google account for security reasons.

By creating multiple reports, I've amassed the max amount of Google accounts I can log into at one time (10), and I need to sign out of some of them, to be able to access new ones.

This is where I'm running into problems, and my question is How do I sign out of google accounts listed in Power BI so that they show up as 'Signed out'.

 

How I arrive at my issue:

 

1) Open up a new power BI desktop page, Not being signed in with any user.

2) Select 'Get Data' > choose Google BigQuery > Sign in window appears, click 'Sign In'

3) Then a window pops up where I see all of the google accounts I have previously signed in with

There are 12 accounts in total, 10 currently signed in, and 2 signed out of.

I do not know the exact steps that were taken to sign out of those two, so I cannot recreate what was done with them.

If I click on 'Use another account' at the bottom, a new window pops up saying that I have to sign out of some active accounts in order to add more. There are no 'three elipses' settings button next to any of the accounts, and there is no 'remove accounts' at the bottom of the page.

 

I've tried revoking Power BI access for these accounts from Google accounts side.

I'm not logged in with any of these accounts in either Power BI Service or Desktop.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The issues was eventually solved by Microsoft themselves, they changed the approach on how logging in window appears - that it shows up as an Edge window rather than a in-PBI window, and after this change it was possible to log out of the necessary acconts through the browser. Since PBI has updated this, logging out of Google accounts has not been an issue

Hi @Rigensis 

 

Go to the Options and Settings -> Data Source Settings now check if there are more than one data source for the Google big queyr and just delete the ones you need:

Hi @MFelix, thanks for your response. In Data Source Settings I have only one instance of Google BigQuery, for which I have tried to 'Clear Permissions', but unfortunatley that didn't solve the issue.
