Cannot change data source credentials to anything different than current credentials because of SSO

Hello,

I'd like to set up in my dataset a sharepoint data source  that would use a generic O365 account.

I'm following this guide https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/refresh-data#accessing-cloud-data-sources.

However, because of SSO, I can't sign in with a different account than mine and therefore cannot setup the data source to use a generic account. Each time I come to the login window, it will log me in using my current credentials regardless of the login I type (i'm not even asked for the password). How can we therefore enter custom data source credentials with SSO enforced ?

Kind regards,

Sébastien.
