Hello everyone,
Is there any way to use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) when connecting to Azure SQL Database from PBI Service with on-premises data gateway?
On admin portal, I can't find AAD Authentication in data source settings.
May it be unsupported?
Hi @PbiCeo
You may refer to the blog to manage data source in gateway.
Blog: Manage data sources
I found a Forums like yours, and I hope it could help you.
Forums: PowerBI Data Source Credential support AAD?
Best Regards,
Rico Zhou
