SharePoint: Request failed: Unable to connect to the remote server
Hi, I could not give you the log by using fidder now, but I wondering about my case, any solution other than clear permission and then try to reconnect it, since my co- worker she is able to connect with Sharepoint. Howerver when she connected and downloaded the pbix file and send back to me, then I not able to refresh the data from Sharepoint.
To summary what I have done:
Firstly, when I tried to connected by choosing data source as Sharepoint, it has the error as " Unable to connect to remote server".
Secondly, when I trying to connect by choosing the source as Web, it has the error as mentioned in the topic https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Error-connecting-to-SharePoint-online/td-p/157696.
When my co- worker connect to the Sharepoint link and save as a pbix copy, then send it back to me. However I cannot refresh it, when I tried to refresh it has the error as mentioned in the above topic.
I have tried in to do as the following ways:
- Clear cache power bi, get the most updated version in December, but it still does not work.
- Clear permission and then log in again as my organisational account.
However it still does not work.
What I concern it, or does this problem associated with the problem of permission, only user with pro license can connect to Sharepoint, or anything related to firewall, since I see i got the " remote server" in the error notification whereas I have not connect to any thing remote.
Please reply me as soon as possible, since it really urgent for me.
Thanks you so much, Hope to get reply from you soon.
Thanks and best regards,
