Power BI This report could not access its data source. please contact developer.
raghavendrasrb,
Was it connected to SSAS? If so, if you have "Live connection" set up people viewing the dashsboard must have access to the data source. You can use "import" instead and scheduled refresh to avoid this.
You may have solved your issue already, but please check if the service account(s) you're using for SSAS/EGW has "Read" permission on the AD user in acrtive directory. I had an issue this week where one user had "Read" for "Authenticated Users" checked, and the other had not (and that user's connection failed).
Hi,
I have the same issue with multidimensional SSAS. After publishing the report, created with Power BI Desktop, in Power BI service I get the error: "This report could not access its data source. please contact <Developer>, the author, to have it fixed.". I connect to Power BI Service with [email protected], I've also added UPN 'company2.onmicrosoft.com' to my AD account COMPANY/username. Any advice?
vaidag,
Could you further explain the issue you're running into? In specific this part" I've also added UPN 'company2.onmicrosoft.com' to my AD account COMPANY/username"?Hello,
now we are trying to connect from our companie's Office 365 tenant, so I connect to Power BI service as: [email protected].
My AD account is: COMP\jonasp. We've added the UPN ([email protected]) to my AD account. I still get the same error, when I try to view the report from Power BI service.Gateway log and SQL Profiler both gives the same error message: The user name or password is incorrect.
