Configure SharePoint Database Refresh in Microsoft Team

My PowerBi Desktop had updated to version August 2021 and I had published the completed dashboard into my Microsoft Team's workspace. I went to the setting to configure database refresh, there are only Anonymous and OAuth2 authentication methods available. I tried all the authentication methods, but none of it working.

 

I was still unable to refresh the database from Microsoft Team via Sharepoint List. May I know how I can refresh successfully thru Microsoft Team or is there any alternative resolution?

Thank you.

Hi All,

 

Thank you all for the advice. I have found out the root cause. When I trying to edit credentials from Microsoft Team's workspace, the sign-in window will not trigger.

To solve this, I log on to Power BI Website and edit credentials from there. The sign-in window will trigger and I was able to select the credential accordingly.

Thanks again for the helps.

Hi  @jhlim ,

According to your error, it seems that you cannot provide all the credentials for datsource. Please check and provide the correct credentials.

1. In power Bi services, enter the report's workspace, find the gear button in the top right corner, select the settings in it, and find the dataset. A list will appear in the list, which contains the datasets of the reports that you have encountered problems
2. By clicking the data set, find the part of data source credentials on the right, check whether the data source fails, and a circle will be displayed
