[BUG] Authentication issue in PowerBI Desktop client

Hello. I have a report open in PowerBi Desktop client for a week now. Today I decided to save it and the client popups an alert: "File save failed, possibly due to a transient issue with network connectivity or sign-in state.".

From the client I can see I am logged in correctly, but if I open a new instance of the client I can see I am not logged in.

 

After I logged in I've been able to go back to my report and save it without that alert. So I think that auth token is expired but the UI wasn't notified. Please fix it!

 

Thanks

Sergio

Hi, 

I’ve also tested it in my latest version of the Power BI desktop, but I can’t reproduce the same issue as yours.

I suggest you to open a support ticket to ask for opinions on this issue from the technical support team of Microsoft.

Hi, thanks for the answer. It happened after about a week of PoweBi client opened, without switching off the pc or closing the application.

 

Thanks
