Desktop login timout

I am unable to login via the desktop app, as it times out.

After entering my email, a window opens to redirect to our ADFS page but then disappears and Power BI locks up until it displays a timeout message.

 

This works fine from outside of my office, so we are positive that this is a firewall/SSL teardown issue.

The only page I can find with sites to unblock is this one.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-troubleshooting-sign-in

Unfortunately, that did not solve it.

 

This shows up in the trace:

DataMashup.Trace Warning: 24579 : {"Start":"2018-06-21T17:41:51.6762281Z","Action":"PBI.PQ.CloudDiscovery","Message":"{\"backendUrl\":\"https://api.powerbi.com/\",\"activityId\":\"0bc68a9c-589f-46c3-86c7-6de3947b8fc5\",\"requestId\":\"5... remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.\",\"httpStatusCode\":\"NotFound\",\"exceptionType\":\"Microsoft.PowerBI.Client.Windows.Services.PowerBIWebException\",\"errorCode\":\"UnknownError\",\"errorDetails\":\"{\\\"error\\\":{\\\"code\\\":\\\"UnknownError\\\",\\\"pbi.error\\\":{\\\"code\\\":\\\"UnknownError\\\",\\\"parameters\\\":{},\\\"details\\\":[]}}}\",\"parentId\":\"9e6f0549-ef98-44e0-bcb5-79a6c2789bc6\",\"isError\":\"True\",\"sessionId\":\"0bc68a9c-589f-46c3-86c7-6de3947b8fc5\",\"deviceId\":\"a301f9e8\",\"userId\":\"b6789842-7d67-476c-af23-bb83a2397cd2\",\"isInternal\":\"False\",\"authenticatedUserId\":\"Unknown\"}","ProductVersion":"2.59.5135.601 (PBIDesktop)","ActivityId":"04d00c9d-e204-43d5-bed8-6a723535cc30","Process":"PBIDesktop","Pid":2036,"Tid":1,"Duration":"00:00:01.2011281"}

 

From the network admin:

"We know this is related to our firewall and SSL teardown as we are able to connect from external networks. We need to know what sites need to be exempt from SSL teardown. I have enabled trace logging but nothing in htere stands out."

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Maybe you can try to use fiddler to trace sign in operation to find out request ip addresses.

Fiddler - Free Web Debugging Proxy - Telerik

 

In addition, you can also take a look at following document which told about ip range of azure data center.

Microsoft Azure Datacenter IP Ranges

Thank you. We found it.

 

For others in the future, you'll need to find the correct azure URL for your tenant for proper SSL teardown.

Ours being in Canada, was wabi-canada-central-redirect.analysis.windows.net.

Once that was excluded from the filter, everything worked properly.
