bftcpa,

Please check if you can sign in Power BI Service(app.powerbi.com) using this account, also go to Settings in the right upper corner to check if you are a Pro user after you sign in successfully.

    Just checked, and when I log into app.powerbi.com with my credentials into app.powerbi.com, I have Power BI Pro.  While it doesn't say "pro" anywhere, I have 10 GB of storage. My Power BI Home Screen today.

     When I use those same credentials to try to access the Data Catalog in Excel, (Data, My Data Catalog Queries) here's the screen I get.

     

    Login screen 1 from within Excel2 - The popup for the MS Authentication3- I enter password4. A message flashes up saying that I've signed out of my account5. I get this message saying that the request couldn't be authorized.

      I'm having this exact same issue.  I have Excel 16.0.11001.20091 64-bit.  Has anyone made any progress on figuring this out?
