Hi,
Since last Friday I'm trying to solve this error on power bi service:
Data source error: {"error":{"code":"DMTS_OAuthTokenRefreshFailedError","pbi.error":{"code":"DMTS_OAuthTokenRefreshFailedError","details":[{"code":"DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingErrorMessage","detail":{"type":1,"value":"AADSTS50076: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access '00000009-0000-0000-c000-000000000000'. Trace ID: dcfa3860-fc29-44c8-9795-04df79cd8900 Correlation ID: bc2109df-1909-468e-bd06-0bd0e95e34d1 Timestamp: 2024-05-13 19:19:29Z"}}],"exceptionCulprit":1}}} Table: d_Entities
If I open the pbix file using power bi desktop I can refresh the dataset and publish on the service without any error, however if I try to refresh it on the service I get this error.
I've read a lot of post about MFA but but unfortunately nobody has solved my problem.
Any sugestion will be very helpeful

Hi. I don't think there is a solution for MFA at Power Bi Service. The approach is using a service account like a service principal for microsoft/azure for example instead a user account with MFA.
I hope that helps,
Happy to help!
