Power BI connection to excel stopped working
Hi All, I haven't found topic about excel datamodel connected to power BI datasource not refreshing, there is no error message, connected to excel through get data->from power platform->from powe...
To anyone else having the same issue i found the reason and managed to fix it.
Somehow (probably due to long time of olap cube refreshing) the excel disabled external data connections in the trust center.
I enabled it and it started to work again.
Its resolved now.
Yes, connecting data from power BI with excel, yes i checked and data in power BI are refreshed successfully.
I probably use access token, but before it worked seamlessly, was there any change in excel/power bi within some updates? Definitely its a good tip for investigation
Is there a way how to dismiss the expiration period?
Thanks
