As announced in my former post I have created a youtube video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLaPgdd5GSU
where I show the gruesome series of issues trying to either sign in from the PBI desktop and or trying to publish either from the desktop or from the cloud app. NOTHING will solve it.
I describe all the troubleshooting, I go through all the docs, from editing the registry HKEY and adding string values and hex numbers to bypass proxy blocking to having to create global admin privileges users in MS 365 or and Azure in order to enable the Admin Portal in Power BI and enable permissions to publish, nothing works and also the unconnected series of troubleshooting docs that you have to find googling and how they are outdated with regards to the configuration of the interface and how you have to find the hidden menu items etc. After 7 odious hours I have given up and I am done with trying to get the link to embed it on my web.
I don't care the number of people who say they didn't have any issue. Nobody should and there are countless of people struggling, info is spread, unhelpful and disorganized, you have hound it around the internet.
Are you familiar with Fiddler, and do you have a good working relationship with your company's security IT team? Are they running away screaming when you mention TLS1.2 ?
