Hi Anonymous ,

Hi Cherry,

I logged into Power BI --> Selected 'Web' --> Basic --> entered the URL 'https://www.solarweb.com' login page --> Under "Access Web content" selected 'Basic' --> entered 'Username' , 'Password' --> ok --> then it says "DataSource.Error Web.BrowserContents currently supports only anonymous credentials.

When I say ok, the Navigator page keeps loading.

Its not logging in as how i do in the browser.

Please help and suggest for valid username and pwd.

Thanks,
Rohini
