Failed to update data source credentials

Submitted by on ‎03-01-2017 03:35 PM

Hello, 

 

I built a report in Power BI desktop from excel table stored in Sharepoint.

I published this report in power BI service and created a dashboard. 

Everytime I am trying to update the report I receive the following error message : 

Failed to update data source credentials.Hide details

Also I can not load my organisation Dynamics data. 

 

What can I do ? 

 

Thank you 

 

Regards 

 

Julie

having the same problem with Salesforce. I can connect in desktop, but get "Failed to update data source credentials:" when trying to use the same credentials for the refresh schedule on the dataset in the power bi online app.

Make sure you publish your data from the O365 admin center Reports page https://portal.office.com/adminportal/home#/reportsUsage. If it still says "We're getting your data ready for the Office 365 Adoption content pack" you need to wait.

I received the following error via email.

An error occurred while processing the data in the dataset.

Refresh failed:
Azure Enterprise has failed to refresh.
Failure details:

The credentials provided for the AzureEnterprise source are invalid. (Source at https://ea.azure.com/rest/redactedenrollmentnumber.) Table: Usage Details.

 

I tried updating my API key and setting up a new connection. Still getting this error.

 As @jasethnz mentioned here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Failed-to-update-data-source-credentials/idc-p/150375#M5253

it is likely MFA causing the issue for me - I am trying to connect to Azure app insights...

 

I am not going to be able to turn off MFA as my enterprise security context requires it.

 

Is there a way around this? Or does Microsoft plan on fixing this?

Hey Luke,

 

you probably need to use a service account, that doesn't use MFA, and has just enough permissions to be able to retrieve the Azure App insights data.

Just give it a really long nasty password...

 

Thanks

Craig

I had the same problem in PBI service where it would refresh the data source in PBI desktop and after a lot of trial and error, I unticked 'Skip test connection' which worked after I then refreshed the dataset. 

 

Hope this helps someone

Hi ,

 

We are connecting to Sage application data through ODBC driver.

Everything is working fine in Power BI Desktop.

But when we try to schedule refresh through personal gateway in web portal of power BI , on providing the same credentials(which are working in power bi desktop)  the following error is thrown

Using basic authentication method. 

Please guide or provide suggestion to fix that . We have checked odbc versions and everything.

Do we need to try through enterprise gateway ? We are trying through personal gateway.
