Organizational account credentials from Power BI Server?

Hi,   I've created a report with a Sharepoint Folder data source (specificaly, an excel xlsx file in a folder of my Sharepoint site). My Sharepoint is hosted on Sharepint Online and I access it via...
Excel
Power BI Desktop
power bi server
SharePoint

This problem has been solved by Power Bi Team.

 

Edit credentials ---> choose "OAuth2" in Authentication method ---> sign in 

 

Then it will link you to the organizational account sign in page.

Hi,

 

thanks for the update, would this also apply to CRM 365 accounts? 

 

Also, where can I find the release notes regarding this update? does this update come with the May version of the report Server?

    I cannot see this feature in May 2019 Report Server at all, release is from 20th May and no newer file is available for download. I wish they would be more clear on when we can actually expect this fix, not when the Power BI team have fixed it in some un-released version.

      You are right, nothing seems to have changed.

        I'm also needing this functionality.  Everything works well on Power BI Server, but on both Report Server and in my Data Gateway I don't have an option to use an organizational account.  All of our data is on SharePoint and is locked up.
