Hi sebastien_dipia,

 

How did you get the excel file from sharepoint? I get the file by Web connector as the pictures as below and use the Orangization account to sign in. Then on the Power BI service side, I use the OAuth2 method, that works well.

 

 

Please note to get the link of the excel file, you should open the excel in advance and get the link by this way. Then remove the ?web=1 and use the new one.

Regards,

Frank

Hi, 

Thanks for this idea, I've been able to change my sources on desktop version and go to "web" and "organisational account" credentials, but when I go back to the webb app, only "anonymous / windows / basic" seems to be available with web from here.

 

I still don't understand why these files (conected to via "sharepoint folder" option) were working 8 days ago and are not working anymore
