Unable to connect to Sharepoint Site with organizational credentials

Hello,

In PowerBi Desktop, I have signed in with my organizational credentials then tried to refresh the data and got the message "We're unable to connect. Please delete your credentials and try again later." 

So I deleted my credentials and can't enter them anymore. When I try to edit my credentials on Data Source Settings, I get the same message :

PwBi_Error_EditCredentials.JPG

The organizational account type isn't available on the left black menu. FYI, the data is stored in a Sharepoint site.

Thank you for your feedback.

If the Sign In button doesn't display anything. Do the following:

 

File > Options and settings > Options >Security > Scroll down to "Authenication Browser" and check the "Use My default web browser"  It's a bug. Apparently resolved in the current release of Power BI (June 2022) but haven't used that version personally.
