Hi @daniele_tiles , @v-kkf-msft  , this post was usefull for one of my case too!

Just to extend and understand more!

When we use Oauth authentication and go to Edit credentials, it asks for Pickup an account, so if we pickup "Service user account" and save the connectin does that mean, while users use this connection serviceaccount credentials used for data refresh or my credentials used for data refresh?

Can you please provide info on same if possible
