In order to use Windows Authentication you need to configure Kerberos.

That looks like a securtity problem.

 

Are you sure the share where you have saved the Excel exists and is correct?

Does the Excel file exist? 

Has someone else got that Excel file open?

Has the User you are accessing it as got access to the share?

Has the service account running your PBI-SSRS service got access to the share?

Has the Service Account running your SQL Agent service got access to the share?

Excel file its in my D:\ drive.

File is not open

I have the access to the shared loaction 

Yes

Yes

 

Now what to do

Is your D drive visible from wherever the SSRS-PBI server is running?

 

The screenshot suggested it was looking at a network share for the excel file \\server\powerbi\inputfile\book1.xlsx

 

Is this correct? I'd expect this to look more like \\machine_name\share_name\folder_path\file_name
