dataset refresh failed
- Anonymous7 years ago
shuaho If M has to 'fetch' data from a source, you need to supply some form of credentials, unless you can use anomyous. Have you tried that option?

Anonymous thanks for replying. Yes, I need to set it as 'anonymous' credentials. And set a 'GET' request reachable endpoint to make the refresh job work.
Thanks !
In your Power BI Service, inside the workspace that houses this report, go into the "Settings" area and look for the Datasets section. On this list should be your dataset for the report you are having trouble with. Click on that report and look for a section on the right called "Data Source Credentials". Check that each data source as I would suspect some will have a Cross in a circle and tell you that the credentials have failed.

yes there are 3 yellow ciccles saying credential issues.
But when I try to set credentials, there are only 'anonymous, windows and basic' 3 ways
. None of them meets with our case.
I would expect the refresh job run the M script that generates the dataset, so the script will automatically get authentcated itself and fetch data.
Is it possible?- Anonymous7 years agoNot applicable

Hey Anonymous,
Any idea what to do if you can't access that section of the settings? (Data Source Credentials)
