Power BI Publisher Authentication
Yes, I solved the problem. Problem was in domain preferences for users. They couldn't store any passwords in their computers. I created trusted local area for storing that.
I added
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Protect\Providers\df9d8cd0-1501-11d1-8c7a-00c04fc297eb] "ProtectionPolicy"=dword:00000001
to registry and it worked
I pinned the same account in Azure in Power BI Publisher. On 8 PCs it stored automatically. On others no.
Ah, sorry. Power BI Publisher. Hmm. Maybe something to do with Trusted File locations or something? Or some Excel setting perhaps. I'll have to research that one.
If I knew where I should find I would found it...
I opened Excel from Administrator user.
I tried to do the same actions on all PCs. I hope It's only checkbox or something else in preferences, but I don't know what.Hi Ustinovdl,
According to my test, Excel file doesn't store the credentials. When I copy it to another computer, the log in information is missed. So the credentials could be stored in the computer. Maybe these post could help. Please handle it carefully.
