I work with the PowerBI Desktop version and dashboards are published to the web. The SalesForce login works from the PowerBI Desktop version and I can get the reports data from SalesForce. But when the pbix file is published I am unable to update data source credentails for the SalesForce data source in order to setup scheduled SalesForce data synch. Any help would be appriaciated!
I see the following error message:
The credentials you provided for the data source are invalid. Please ensure the credentials you have provided for all the data sources are valid.
