    Hi Jon,

     

    In most cases, ADFS should work with all mobile apps, including the Win app without any special adjustment.

    However, there are some cases in specific ADFS configurations that require some adjustments in order for Power BI Win app to work.

    In order to investigate this further and assist you with a proper resolution we've escalated this to our engineering team and they will contact you directly for more details.

     

    Thanks,

    Yaron

    The support guys reached out and fixed this on the first email.  My ADFS server didn't have forms authentication enabled on the Intranet.  Steps to enable forms authentication are below.

     

    Open ADFS Console.

    Click on Authentication Policies.

    Click on Edit Global Primary Authentication.

    In the Intranet box tick Forms Auhtentication.

    Click OK.

    Forms Authentication should now be enabled.

     

    Thanks Power Bi Support for helping me with resolving this.
