Failed to update data source credentials: InstanceNotRegistered

[louagej]

Hi,

here is the following scenario were I'm having trouble with:

• I installed Power BI Gateway Enterprise on my local machine
• I added the gateway (incl. 2 data sources) on https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/gateways
• My user account is administrator for the gateway

• I also added a OData datasources and connected successfully

• When I try to use the Dynamcics NAV content pack, I'm getting following error:

Failed to update data source credentials: InstanceNotRegistered

Anyone has an idea what's not configured right here?

Kind regards,

Same problem here.

I can set up an OData gateway to NAV, but it doesn't work to use the content pack. Same error, without 'InstanceNotRegistered'.

Tried authenticating with Windows/Basic/Key, but non works.

This is now a known issue:

Start time: Wednesday, November 16, 2016, at 8:00 PM UTC

More info: Users that have published workbooks and reports with datasets pointing to existing SharePoint data sources will not be able to set credentials for that data source.

Current status: We've identified that a recent update to the service resulted in unexpected impact to the ability to publish new workbooks and reports. We're working to develop a fix and deploy it to a test environment to ensure it is successful.

We having the same problem. Is there any feedback on the solution?

This seems to be a common problem - we are running into the same issue.

Unfortunately, it does not seem that Microsoft is really interested in a Solution. I'm sure they'll start advertising their Cloud-NAV product soon...

This is very familiar teritory, I am at the same stage with the same result.

Can anyone from Power BI Admins contribute to this? And is there a step that we are missing?

Thanks

Hi Ariel,

I never got a solution for this. What we did, was rebuild the report on Power BI Desktop with the correct oData feed and publish the reports to Power BI Web.

So we don't need the Content Packs of Microsoft anymore.

@louagej In past I've had similar issues connecting and refreshing with data source that was Active Directory. Though it wasn't enterprise but personal gateway. Best thing I did was contacted Microsoft support and it took a while to work with them but eventually I was able to get answer.

[flormendz]

What was the answer? Was it solved? How?

@ankitpatira

Thanks for your reply.

I logged a question on the support site of Microsoft Power BI... I'll let you know if Microsoft came up with a solution.
