Refresh fail - "Credential are required..."
everything is in the cloud, power bi on line, sherepoint on line
Community ChampionSorry, let me be more specific. Are you using Power BI Desktop and uploading the resulting PBIX file to the Service or are you connecting directly from the Service to your SharePoint Team Site?
Hi, let me explain, i have a excel file, inside are the conections to sharepoint lists, in this file i have a model generated with power query and power pivot; this file i upload to power bi online to show a report. But a fews days ago, the refresh fail, and the error message is "Credential are required to connect to the Sharepoint source".
I try to update the credential many times, but the same result, the refresh fail

OK, getting closer. When you go to Schedule Refresh on your Data set, do you see "OneDrive Refresh" at the top or things like "Gateway status", "Data source credentials", "Schedule Refresh".
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I'm trying to emulate your configuration and how you are using Power BI so that I can try to replicate the issue.
Hi, the gateway status is on line, the credentials is ok, that's the weird thing, apparently all right, but to refresh the data fails
This error could be a permitions on the sharepoint site? The credentials are from the user owner of the site, it has a full control
