Error Connecting to Visual Studio Online: Not authorized to access this resource

Good day.

 

We have a Visual Studio Online Project, wherein i have access as a Team Project user and a Project Collection Administrator. 

Now i want PowerBI To connect to VSO to get the workitems and do reporting. 

 

Our VSO uses Azure Active Directory. 

So after i fill in the VSO Project Name, and entered the my account username and password. I get this error, i can't login.

What causes this error? 

I tried to search online, i came across a similar question, but until now it is still unanwered.

I Access PowerBI through our Office 365. I have logged out and logged in many times already with the correct account, still i get this error. 

 

Can anyone help how to solve this? Or is it an ongoing problem of PowerBI now? 
Thanks,

  • We are experiencing the same challenge. The connection to VSO has been working for three weeks but late last week it stopped working and we are seeing exactly the same type of error.

  • I have the same issue, I went in to refresh data today on Power BI Online and I get the below error, My dataset has also gone.... so I have tried to re-add this and still get same error

     

    I have requested others in my byusiness to do this and they are presented with the same issue;

        Got this issue this week, can someone confirm for me that this is a consistent issue?

         

        Edit: Can confirm this was a cacheing issue, apologise, it is now working.

      I am getting this exact problem today. First time I have tried. I've logged out and back in to VSO but it made no difference. What is the trick to getting it working?

       

      It would be good if we could connect through PBI Desktop instead of only online though..
