Facebook - connection error

Hi guys,

 

I connected to Facebook via Add Data, and all data was pulled correctly.

 

Now, when I want to refresh the report I can't seem to re-connect to facebook via Power BI desktop. I'm getting: "Access to the resource is forbidden", even if I re-log in to facebook account using my working credentials.

 

Help would be much appreciated !

 

Thanks,

@vemvemvem How did you connect to FB? Did you use facebook connector ? I seem to get error even while connecting. Anyways check out this guide and see if it can be any help to you.

Hey ankipatira

 

I was able to connect via the facebook connector. I can create a new query to facebook, no problems with pulling the data for the firs time.

 

However, I cannot refresh existing connection. That's the problem. 

 

Any ideas ?
