Hi,
Why is not possible to add a data source Share Point folder in the app.powerbi.com with Microsoft Authentication?
Hi,
If you use local data source, please choose Windows authentication.
if you use SharePoint Online as a data source, you do not need to set gateway configuration, and set credential under dataset is ok.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards,

Thank you for your reply.
The report was created using the Power Bi Desktop and published online.
I want get out from on premises gateway desktop and move to Share Point Online.
But when I add new data set appears only windows or anonymous and not Microsoft authentication
