    bh56 you have a little bit different issue. You have to set correct access roles in IAM (access control) in Azure Portal. You have to be the owner of the resource (not inherited one).

     

    My problem was solved via MS Support - the only thing was that I had to delete a container (named powerbi) that I had in my ADLS Gen2. The mechanism behind creates this container automatically. Now everything works for me.

     

    Let me know whether you need some additional assistance.

We couldn't connect to the storage account because you don't have the required role-based-access-control (RBAC) permissions. Make sure you're assigned the "Reader and Data Access Role" for this storage account, and try again.
