OAUTH_APP_BLOCKED issue when I tried to connect Salesforce from desktop, any idea?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I am trying to connect to Salesforce and it shows me below error message, any idea how I can fix it?

'OAUTH_APP_BLOCKED': this app is blocked by admin.

Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous ,

A Salesforce admin for your organization has blocked the Power BI Desktop integration from your account. To unblock, an admin will need to do the following:

• Navigate to Setup > Manage Apps > Connect Apps OAuth Usage
• Look for the 'Power BI Desktop' Connected App
• If the "Action' button for the   Power BI app says "Unblock", then this Connected App has been blocked.
• To unblock Power BI, click the "Unblock" button
• To proceed, review the dialog box that appears and click "OK"

There is one thing you need to be aware of：

Any BLOCKED apps within OAuth Connected App Usage shows up at the VERY BOTTOM of the list of apps... so it's not in the alphabetical order you would expect.  

And refer the following article ,wish it is helpful for you!
