Issues with Active Directory/MFA in Power BI Service
Hi!
Did you ever find out what did this? We're experiencing the same issues in PowerBI Service.
- Admin Portal is spinning
- Can't manage gateways
- Can't check settings for datasets
- failed to load resource with server responding with status 400
This all worked fine untill some time after implementing MFA (a few months back).
Weird thing is that it works some times, but often not (and obviously never works when you really need it to..)
Would be great to hear if you found anything!
Vegard1985 , I suggest talking to your cybersecurity colleagues and analyzing any conditional access policies your organization might have in place through your identity provider (which I assume is Azure AD). Without getting into the gory details, Microsoft does not play nicely with some of our policies. We were forced to tweak our security so that the Power BI application is now covered by not just one, but TWO conditional access policies. This means our Power BI users get two MFA prompts when they login, but it at least restores all application functionality.

pdbenbow , Ok, it sure does baffle me how this can be such a pain to set up - but thanks, I'll check in with our guys on this. Just for anyone's information, MFA was disabled entirely for my user (all apps) earlier today and everything in PBI Service is working as it should now.
