Can I connect to Power BI dataflows/SharePoint files using Generic ID?
Hi Everyone, Is it possible to get data from Power BI dataflows and SharePoint (list/folder), and schedule a refresh using a generic ID instead of our own user ID? Thank you for your help!
Greg_Deckler does it require to have a license (e.g. O365 license) to work?
Our generic ID is now windows authenticated and it already has access to one of our SharePoint, but the connection does not work. Do you know some documentation regarding this?
Thank you!
