Scheduled refresh credentials on PBI Service

Hi, 

 

Currently I'm using OAuth2 to provide credentials for scheduled refresh. My question is - are they gonna be stored on PBI Service forever or I have to provide them again in the future? I'm a little bit afraid that at some point they will be automatically erased and I won't know that there is no daily refresh going on.

 

Best regards

    Hi xhurit ,

     

    You don’t have to worry about re-entering the credentials as long as they are not expired. 

    Be sure to leave the Send refresh failure notification email to me checked. You’ll want to know right away if a scheduled refresh fails.

    You don't need to provide the credentials again as long as your credentials are valid.
