I've built out a fairly extensive report using Power BI Desktop and the Salesforce connector.
However, I need to swap the credentials that I'm using to connect to Salesforce for another set. Is there a way to do this?
Currently I'm authenticated with user A, but going forward I need to authenticate using user B. I'd like to avoid losing (or having to recreate) the report that I've already put together.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@paulwozniak There's a manage data source settings page for this
It's in File->Options->Data Source Settings. Find the one for your salesforce connector, edit it and choose "Edit Credentials"
You can relogin there

Thank you!
Try this technique.
Make a backup copy of your PBIX file (for safe keeping). Then rename the file from .pbix to .zip
Open the .zip file and look through for a connections (or similar) file which you can have a crack at editing. Good luck!
If it fails you can always revert to your backup copy.
Let us know how you get on.
