Data Source Credentials - External Sharepoint
Hi Everyone, I am getting the following error when refreshing on a published report ;
I have updated my credentials on the data settings page.
This is a Sharepoint on which I have a guest account (i.e not my main workplace domain), could this be causing the issue?
It normally uses the Microsoft Authenticator app to log in to the Sharepoint I am accessing.
I have no problems refreshing in the desktop PBI file.
Kind Regards

Hi @tb92
This is a common error on the choice of the SharePoint connector vs Web connector in power BI desktop.
How did you connect?
