SharePoint Online list schedule refresh
Hello,
It seem that I cannot scedule a dataset refresh to get fresh data from a SharePoint Online list. The reason seem to be the missing authentication option (Microsoft Account) for the dataset, you may see print screns below from Power BI desktop and the Power BI dataset settings. Am I doing something wrong here?

I created a support ticket and the resolver suggested to replave the HTTP part of the URL to HTTPS. This solved the issue and I can see the OAuth2 option now!

Hi Anonymous ,
Based on my test, it could work on my side:
Could you have tried to clear your permission and try to get data form your SharePoint Online list in Power BI Desktop again?

Dear v-danhe-msft (Daniel),
Yes I have done this but no chanse I am completely missing the Windows account authentication option in the Power BI portal, I can only see it in the Power BI desktop. I have the most up to date Power BI version. Could it be that there is some seeting needed in the Power BI Admin console?
In your print scereen you show the privacy level not the authentication method. The authentication method seem to be Anonymous and this will not work.
Thanks for helping me out.

Hi Anonymous ,
No, the authentication method is OAuth2:
I suggest you to try again and check with your SharePoint list url.

Probably I posted this one to the wrong community category. I can neither find a way to transfer it to the Desktop section, nor delete it from here, so I am reposting it there.
