No AUthO2 option when entering credentials in data model in clients tenant

I have a data model published to clients tenant which is built to pull data through APIs from Azure, when i try to authenticate in the their tenant i only get authentication methods of Anonymous or Basic, but if i publish the same model to our tenant AUthO2 is available along with Anonymous and basic to me to be able to authenticate. Would anyone know/experienced this before and how to over come? Im using a pro licence in their tenant. Let me know if you need any more info.

Hi @Anonymous ,

This is not possible due to constraints with the way Web.Contents stores credentials. They are stored based upon the URL value passed, and there can only be one URL per Dataset. In this case, you're trying to short-circuit a typical oAuth2 flow (one URL) and call the API (another URL). I made an attempt at using RelativePath to 'trick' the service, but stills require that the root of those two endpoints returned a valid HTTP 200 response to indicate connection success. In this case, https://www.googleapis.com returns a 404. Unfortunately, therefore it is not possible as an uploaded PBIX file. I suggest creating a new issue describing what data you would want to see in the Google Analytics content pack (https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/getdata/services/google-analytics) and we can see about adding it to the model.
