Hi
I am trying to use power query on azure data factory and I am receiving the following error when I add a data source from our azure data lake: "We could not evaluate this query due to invalid or missing credentials" (see image below).
I know that I have access to the datalake and I successfully tested the connection to the lnk service. I am also able to access this database when I use power Bi desktop.
Do you have any ideas as to why I am getting this error message and how to solve it?
Thanks
Hi @Anonymous ,
It seems that you are not providing the correct credentials.
What is your data source? Please check that your data source credentials are configured correctly.
Best Regards,
Stephen Tao
