    Hi Anonymous 

    Currently, Power BI Report Server does not support OAuth-based authentication for model refresh. Some data sources such as Excel or Access databases make use of a separate step like File or Web to connect to data.

     

    Which data source do you connect to?

    We may find some workarounds.

     

    Best Regards
    Maggie
