Hi nabeelshahid,

There is an internal issue stating the above problem that user is unable to connect to Project Online Content Pack, and engineer is working on this issue. I will post back once I get any updates.

 

Besides, as a temporary workaround for this issue, you can connect to Project Online using Get Data-> OData feed entry in Power BI Desktop following the instructions in this blog , then create your reports and publish them to Power BI Service.

 

Thanks,

Lydia Zhang

      Hi Anonymous,

       

      Looks good, I managed to connect and open the base dashboard and report using Get Data in the Web App using OAuth2 authentication. Windows authentication did not seem to work but this is no problem.

       

      Thank you for your efforts.

       

      Regards,

      Hi Anonymous 

       

       

      Lamentably we continue having problems at the moment of updating the credentials when an URL is in use composed like: https://xxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/pwa/_api/ProjectData/[en-US] . From Power BI Desktop it works to the perfection, but it to put to disposition to other users we could not have achieved the automatic refreshment of information:

       

      Click Schedule Refresh. You will then see that you need to enter the credentials used for each OData endpoint used in the reports:

       

       

      Click Edit credentials and select OAuth2 on the window that opens:

       

       

      Click Sign In then enter the credentials / select the account as required. Repeat this for all of the OData connections.

       

       

      “Failed to update data source credentials.”

       

       

      Please help!
