I'm unable to schedule refresh using oAuth2 and an Azure DevOps data source. I'm prompted for login, but when I'm returned to PowerBI I get an error:
Failed to update data source credentials: Credentials are required to connect to the VSTS source. (Source at vssps.)Hide details

Solved! Go to Solution.
On the service click on the Data Source and input your credentials and ensure it doesn't throw a error and force a refresh and it should work fine

@nirvana_moksh can you please explain in a better way, what you are trying to say. Which data source settings are you talking about in Power Bi service, the data source credentials one? Thats where I get the failed to update credentials error.
Regards,
I'm having the same issue. Where is the "Service" you are referring to? Thanks.
I get the same error and clicking Sign in multiple times doesn't help.
Does anyone know if Conditional Access can cause a problem for the Power BI <> Azure Devops connection?
I have a sandbox/test tenant and the connection works fine here (and this one doesn't have Conditonal Access activated)
Kind Regard

It's working now, thanks.
