Power Bi failed to auto-refresh if Multi-factor is enabled

After I tunrned on MFA, the auto refresh os Power BI stopped to work. Is that any workaround for that?

Hi @pbernardes ,

Could you please provide more information to help you like 

What is your datasource?

What type of autentication used in your datasource?

Hi @Jayendran ,

The data source is Sharepoint online and I am using OAuth2 authentication method in a Organizational privacy level.

Hi @pbernardes 

I think you are using your own credentials or some other user credentials for the Connections. So since you enabled the MFA it's started failing . Can you share the error description here ?

Meanwhile why don't you try a service account rather than your account which having the MFA. Assuming that you enabled the MFA the connection needs additional layer of autentication which is not happening. So some workaround is

Either Use a Service account with-out having the MFA enabled or Disable the MFA and check the refresh is getting sucess again.
