Can't Log into Data Catalog from Within Excel
Hi Lydia, I had a similar issue but mine doesn't even get to the password stage. Here is the advanced diagnostics id:
Sign in to your account
I am having exactly the same issue.
The problem seems to be that even though it indicates that you should provide an organisational account (which would be correct as this is where the Power BI license is) - it is actually not redirecting to our organisational Azure AD and is keeping with the Microsoft Authentication. I can tell this, not only because it does not present with the org branding on the login page - also it will not accept the org password but does accept the microsoft password (on the same email address)
So it seems that Excel is directing to the MS auth method rather than the organizational auth method.
Strange as I am logged into Excel with my Organisational Account!
my version is 16.0.10730.20344
I'm having the same issue, Excel isn't redirecting to our Org sign in at this point. When I enter my org username it just says no Microsoft account exists with that username.
