Data Source Credentials - External Sharepoint

Hi Everyone, I am getting the following error when refreshing on a published report ; 

 

tb92_1-1701960400666.png

 

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?
