PowerBI is mixing up credentials when updating Dataset with OAUTH

Hi, I have a problem that PowerBI is mixing up credentials when updating Dataset with OAUTH. In powerbi portal (app.powerbi.com) I have three reports from different intune tenants that have the same odata url but each dataset uses it's own credentials to get the correct data. After auto update sometimes the reports are correct with the correct data and sometimes Powerbi has somehow mixed up the credentials so that the report for company A has the data from company B or C, the mix up is also not consequent. When going to dataset and edit credentials I insert and authenticate with cred belonging to the report/ dataset and customer and in affected report only one and the correct one is shown. Am I missing something and doing this wrong?

    are these running through the same gateway connection? If so then you may want to consider creating separate gateway connections per user.

    Thank's, I'll look into that. I belived GW connection was for on-premises solutions? The Intune tenants are totally seperate but they all provide an OData feed with the same url, only difference is the login user to get the data.

    Same problem here. This is so dangerous! Clients are thinking about dumping us. It's not safe at all that it changes the data source credentials to another client. We can't change the gateaway with the current account, since we are using PPU licenses. The gateaway option is disabled.
