tameismael Welcome to the Power BI Community!
Posting in the public forum is the quickest and best way to get a response, so if you have sensitive data it's best to share the info you can (ie column names, relationships, cardinality). If you can generate some dummy data that replaces the sensitive info with random data that is perferct. If you want one on one help, many of us provide consulting services too.
All the solved posts can be searched: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?advanced=true&allow_punctuation=false&collapse_discussion=true&filter=acceptedSolutions,labels,solvedThreads&location=forum-board:power-bi-designer&solution=true&solved=true&sort_by=-solutionDate though I find a Google search actually works really well for finding the answers to solved questions - you can see from Google before you click the link if the post is solved or not. I found lots of answers to my questions in that way while I was still learning and actually never had to write my own post! 🙂
Sometimes you just don't know what to search for, so that's when popping your question in here with as much detail as possible without giving sensitive info can help us point you to the right links or posts.
Enjoy Power BI and look forward to seeing you around the forums!

I don't know what data source is missing a credential. I verified and can refresh the dashboards just fine on the powerBI desktop app. I can publish the reports to my workspace but I cant schedule refresh times for them to automatically update. I get this error: Data source error: Scheduled 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 am importing my data through SQL Server database with my database login credentials. I have a sharepoint account with my PowerBI linked to it, but for some reason it won't verify credentials. I also don't have a gateway access.
Please help!
