Repeated Prompts to Sign In

[Adescrit]

For the last two days, I'm repeatedly presented with the following message in Power BI desktop asking me to sign in, even though I am already signed in. I am signed in to Power BI desktop to a "Work or School account" that is different to own my organisational account. As I'm a consultant I often work in multiple accounts per day and am rarely logged into my own organisational account.

If I click on "Work or school account" (the bottom option), and then sign into an account, I will be signed into Power BI Desktop but the message prompting me to sign in will re-appear.

If I click on the "X" to close the message, it will re-appear. If I do this 7 or 8 times the message prompting me to sign in will finally disappear. However when I move to a new Power BI Desktop window (a different pbix file) the issue will repeat. I'm prompted to sign in, even though I already am signed in, and I need to click on the "X" 7 or 8 times.

My colleagues have reported experiencing a similar issue / bug.

Same for me - must sign in twice when opening a file in PBI Desktop.

First sign in

Second Sign in - note the user already signed in

Clicking File prompts even more requests to sign in

This is my Power BI version

Hi, I am also getting login prompts when I open power bi desktop in citrix. This is after the new June version was installed last week. It is so annoying. Every report I open, I get asked to login. any advice from Microsoft would be helpful here. I have tried ticking the enable default browser in Security options but the issue still exists. thanks

Hello @v-xiaoyan-msft 

Do you have any update on this issue?

[cassidy]

Same here, this is what my browser looks like if I just leave a Desktop file open for a couple of days.  Asks to sign in over and over and over

Hi  all,

There has been internal feedback from engineers about this issue and it will be fixed in a future release, no definite ETA at this time.

Best regards.
