Connecting to OData Source through ADFS

I have a workstation in DomainA, I am needing to pull data from an OData Source located in DomainB. To log into web resources in DomainB, we get redirected to an ADFS login page. The entire environment uses smart cards and PINs, we have no username/Pwd and no user knows their password. 

 

Through a browser, I can access the OData source, it will prompt me for ADFS login when I do(uses a smart card and PIN), and I am there.

 

On PowerBi Desktop, as soon as it redirects to the ADFS login, the PowerBI call fails, it does not prompt me for Auth or give me any options for authenication. Is there any way to do this with PowerBI Desktop or do I have to build this from a workstation physically located in DomainB?

I am not aware that Power BI supports that sort of authentication through ADFS
