Credential Error for Excel File hosted on One Drive
Hi Power BI Support Team,
I am getting a credential errors on an Excel files stored on One Drive when i try to add the data source to the gateway.
Here is my detailed environment:
Windows 10 Pro,Version 10.0.1734 Build
Office 365 Business Premium
Power BI Professional
When i log into the laptop i simply enter my email address such as [email protected]. I have a personal domain name associated with subscription.
My local PC where the gateway is installed shows the following in regards to the system information
Local PC
The Excel file is located in the root directory of the onedrive.
When i open the Excel file in the desktop App from the one drive online and copy the url from within Excel it returns the result below:
https://xyz-my.sharepoint.com/personal/myfirstname_xyz_com/Documents/MyTestSpreadsheet.xlsx?web=1
I understand i need to remove the "?web=1" from the url stated above when entering the path for the Web data source.
I tested the url by pasting it to a browser and it opens the file in Excel on line with the ?web=1 or without in Excel desktop app.
Note i am not using the File Data source but Web as the data source.
Data Source Add screen
What is the correct syntax for entering the Windows User Name for gateway laptop NOT in a business network domain and without an on premise active directory?
I have tried several options and referred to previous comments in this area but I cannot get this to work and get credential error messages as shown below:

Tried various versions of the username but no luck, appreciate any other options to try and get this working!
A one drive connector would be real useful.
I ended up solving this by making sure the Data source credentials were set in the Power BI file before uploading.
Selecting Data Source Setting as organistational will then give you the OAUTH 2 option in the data source Add screen in the service.

Sounds like its the table data with the problem B2B table..."Underlying error messageThe key didn't match any rows in the table."..I dont see its a credential error from the error message you submitted.Have your checked the columns of your B2B table data in the query editor for errors? I would step through each step of the transformations in your queries to see if its causing an issue. A sample image of the table data would be useful.
Perhaps submit more information about the data source so we can trouble shoot it.
