I think I can repro the same issue as you. In Power BI Desktop, I get data from a excel file on OneDrive for Business with the steps in this official document. After I publish it to Power BI Service, I try to change the data source credential to OAuth2. Everything looks fine until now. But once I click edit credential again, the credential reverted to Anonymous. If I click refresh now, the refresh will be failed.

 

I find that there is already a same issue reported. Power BI team are working on it. Based on the information I get, the fix maybe available later this week (11/26). Please try it later and post back if issue still persists.

 

Best Regards,

Herbert

    Hi everyone!

    I´m having the same problem.
    But in my case the data source is Google Analytics.

     

    Any news about this issue?

     

    Thanks.
    Fernando.

      Hi,

       

      It appears to be working for me again. My credentials are accepted and I can refresh and schedule refresh.

      Thanks Andrea and Herbert for your assistance.

       

      Regards,

      Derek
