OK, I have to modify my post a little, after all, this is preview cloud software, and it's changing fast! Today, publishing the report works fine. But as I try to access the report via browser in my ppu workspace, the error message is "The data source Extension is missing credentials and cannot be accessed". I was able to publish there, and I do have a Premium per User license. What can I do?

Thanks for the flag markusr Let me check with the team and get back you on this. Doesn't seem we have seen this error before but I'll confirm 👍

    Hi again markusr . Some quick checks before we go further down the road here:

    1. Did you go into the dataset settings in the service to enter and confirm your credentials?
    2. Might be unrelated, but make sure you used the new Power Platform dataflows connector

    If is not any of these 2, then it might be something else we need to take a look at 👍

      Hi MiguelMartinez , you found it! I really had to go into the dataset settings in the service to enter and confirm my credentials, now the report works and refreshes. I had to modify the dataset settings of the dataset that automatically gets created along with the publishing of the report, and with the same name as the report! I completely ignored that! So make sure this clearly visible in the documentation (it probably is already, I didn't check that). Great work, thanks for your help!

        Thanks for confirming markusr Great idea on including that in docs. I assumed that people would know because of regular dataflows but other users might come directly to streaming. Will add that note ASAP. Thanks again for the flag for using this awesome feature! 👍🙏
