Salesforce credentials not working

My power BI report I built in the desktop version is connected to Salesforce Objects. When I published the report and trying to establish a scheduled refresh, I am getting an error that says "Data Source Credentials are invalid". It doesnt let me edit the credentials either. Has anybody faced this issue?

 

Thanks

Hi mswetha87,

 

Click File->Options and Settings->Data Source Settings in power bi desktop and click edit permission of salesforce object and then publish to service again to check if the issue still happens. If still happen, you should consider to connect to salesforce using salesforce content pack in power bi service instead of publishing reprot to service.
