Failed to refresh data - absolutely no idea why
Also if you go into the Settings in your App Workspace, then click on Datasets, where you configured the refresh schedule, there should be an option to click on Refresh History, which might give more details.
It could be possible that a password has changed?
Refresh failure is still continuous.....
I think it might have to do with the credentials. I noticed that since a few weeks, Power BI Desktop regularly tells me that my credentials are invalid and that I have to update them. This happens mostly with Google Analytics, but sometimes Salesforce, too.
It happened a few times now that the refresh failed in the Service and that there was an error in a table from Google Analytics. But when I refresh the data in de Desktop there's no error, just invalid credentials.
I don't understand why it keeps throwing out my credentials instead of just remembering them. It wasnt like this before.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? My customers (and myself) are becoming quite annoyed.

"Customers who attempt to create a new query or edit their credentials for Google Analytics data sources may get an authentication error when entering their Google account information. In addition, some customers may get authentication errors when refreshing datasets that access Google Analytics data. Engineers are working on the fix to mitigate the issue.Next Update:03/15/2018 2:00 PM PST."
