Re: Refresh from SharePoint online

Anonymous · ‎11-22-2017

I have a report published to the PowerBI report server that uses a number of csv files stored in SharePoint online as the datasource. The report refreshes fine in the desktop client using an Organisational Account (OAuth2?) however the only authentication type options in the report server are 'anonymous' or 'windows' neither of which work.

Is there someway to refresh this report on the server that I'm missing?

UPDATE: So I just watched the "What is new and exciting in Power BI Report Server" webinar where it was stated that authentication using OAuth tokens is not supported. There was something about being able to use ADFS authentication by setting up a windows web server application proxy which may help, however I think I'm just going to move my source files to an on-prem network drive.
