Hi All,
I am trying to connect to some OneDrive for Business Folders to import and link to existing Excel Documents. When I click in to create new content from OneDrive for Business, I get the following:
I have attempted to connect multiple times and the error does not go away and a connection never gets made. Any ideas on the problem here?
Thank you for any insight you have!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Yeah it normally is pretty quick.
I would wait an hour or two and try again?
Also as a last chance, try log out and log back into Power BI Service?
FYI,
I was working in a Private Mode Browser, so I wasn't signed in to my onedrive account on the browser, which disallowed the ability to open OneDrive for Business File Explorer.
Thank you!
