By having two datasources, I must pass them both through the gateway, even if SharePoint doesn't need one.

Otherwise, I get this error. It would have been so easier to solve, if the message of the error was correct.

Hi @collinq 

 

It is in the data flow.

 

It contains two data sources: a sql server connected through a data gateway and a CSV file stored in sharepoint.

Hey @webportal ,

 

So, you are in the data flow and have selected "Add new tables" and then you select the data source (SQL in this case) and then are getting a sign in error on the connection credential page?

Actually, it is the other way around:

 

I login to SQL and import the tables without any issue.

Then I'm asked a MS account login when trying to connect to the CSV in SharePoint - and I get stuck here.

Hi, @webportal

By default, Google Chrome blocks pop-ups from automatically showing up on your screen. When a pop-up is blocked, the address bar will be marked Pop-up blocked  veasonfmsft_0-1653371671691.png.
You can also decide to allow pop-ups.

Try to Change your default pop-ups & redirects settings.

  1. On your computer, open Chrome Chrome.
  2. At the top right, click More : > Settings.
  3. Click Privacy and security > Site Settings.
  4. Click Pop-ups and redirects.
  5. Choose the option you want as your default setting.

Hi @webportal ,

 

Can you please clarify where you are getting this message?  Is it in Desktop?  The Service?  A specific Data flow?
