Failed to update data source credentials.

I have been using Powr BI Desktop succesfully to access data from WebTuna. this has been using the WebTuna REST API with Basic authentication and a Key supplied by WebTuna. No isssues.

 

Application Performance have created and published a Content Pack for WebTuna. I can not gain access when loading the WebTuna Content Pack , I get 'Failed to update data source credentials.' when entering the same credentials as I am using in theh Desktop application.

 

My colleagues can load the content pack and access the data.

 

Can you provide any guidance or troubleshooing options?

      Thank you Simon,

      I have no issue/problem accessing WebTuna from Power BI Desktop application. Method of access with REST/API and ID and password is the same with the content pack but only get error message 'Failed to update data source credentials.'.  The message is not ' Access denied'.

      Many thanks

  • Did we get a resolution for this.

     

    I am able to connect to the API url using web connector from the desktop. However when I published the report, it is not refreshing when i go to schedule refresh. It is not recognising the credentials, when I enter it and I get "Failed to update data source credentials" error.
