Power ParticipantSharePoint Auth failing during Refresh in Service
Has anyone out there been experiencing degraded performance around authorizing with SharePoint in the last 36 hours? We are in US West.
Starting 8 pm pacific 1/4/26, every model and dataflow that connects to a SharePoint file via Web connector or SharePoint connector started to fail with various errors all centered around unable to authorize. Occurs across multiple users and files. It works maybe 10% of the time, but has gotten worse.
Editing Credentials fails entirely, times out.
It works in Desktop fine, it works when creating a Dataflow ( before trying to refresh it which it then fails )

I'm experiencing a similar issue with SharePoint and with the Web Connector to connect to Excel files stored in SharePoint. The OAuth2 is failing and editing the credentials in the service is very slow, laggy, and usually ends up with errors like these:
- Failed to update data source credentials: Failed to get OAuth resource, please make sure the OAuth is supported
- You need to use SSL (HTTPS) when you use OAuth 2.0 authentication.
cassidyYep - that is it. I'm working with a MSFT rep, but they don't know what is happening yet.
I think there is an outage.- V-yubandi-msft

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear things are back to normal on your side as well.
Since nothing was changed on your end, this does point to a Microsoft-side issue that’s likely been resolved. If your Microsoft rep shares any details on what changed, it would be great to pass that along here for others.
Appreciate you keeping the community updated, and please let us know if the issue comes back.
