Google Analytics Credentials in a Published Model

Hi,

 

I have a simple model with google analytics source create with Power BI Desktop.

After publishing it, I want to schedule a refresh, and so the service asks me to update the credentilas to be used accessing the google analytics data source.

 

  1. Under Datasets - Datasource credentials
  2. I click Edit Credentials
  3. Signin
  4. A browser window pops up asking me to confirm PowerBI access to my analytics data (chrome, and I'm already signed in to my google accout)
  5. I click Accept and the window closes
  6. I see the small popup with the signin again, about 30 seconds after a spinning wheel apears and remains forever. Even if I press the Signin again nothing happens.

I also saw this message:

http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Integrations-with-Files-and/Cannot-refresh-PowerBI-Desktop-GA-datase...

And tried it but had the same result.

 

Did anyone have any success doing that?

Hmm, my Google Analytics dashboard has been updating fine, I haven't seen these issues.
