Have you tried to login out and re-login? What's going on when login in with another account?

Hi Kumar

 

Thanks for your reply

 

Yes I've tried logging out and in. Tried on a VM that has never seen Power BI ever. The credentials for accessing the OData feed are stored some where and used for the connection in my Power BI account it would seem. I've tried clearing out the cache for IE, The caches on the Power BI Desktop. There is no gateway setup to any OData sources in the Power BI Web.

 

I think in general this isn't a problem for normal user really as they would probably want to store the credentials if they regularaly connect to a service. As a developer if you want to test different logins for an OData service having it remember your credentials and not being able to clear them is a bit of problem.
