Unable to open Power BI files stored in Onedrive and SharePoint from Power BI Desktop

Hi All,

 

Is anyone facing any challenge to open files from OneDrive / SharePoint.

As per new Oct. 23 update, I am not able to open Power BI files stored in Onedrive and SharePoint.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-sharepoint-save-share#open-power-b... 

 

All the below pre-requisites are in place already on my side: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-sharepoint-save-share#prerequisite... 

  • You're signed-in to Power BI Desktop with your Azure Active Directory account.
  • The feature is enabled through the options menu in Power BI Desktop.
  • The feature is enabled by your Power BI Admin.

 

Is there any configuration we need to make at network or Group Policies side.

Kindly suggest!!!

 

Thanks

Hi, @yavnish 

 

Are you getting any error? make sure your network connection is okay. Also, I hope checkmark is enabled in the preview features.

Hi @rubayatyasmin,

 

Yes, all the settings are in place and everything works well without any issue except this new feature.

OneDrive and SharePoint can also be used independently but while using with Power BI Desktop it is not working and not allowing to Sign In.

Please try it from your side as well.

Thanks

I guess this has stumped them because I get the same message and can't find a correction anywhere.
