Failed to update data source credentials

Hello, 

 

I built a report in Power BI desktop from excel table stored in Sharepoint.

I published this report in power BI service and created a dashboard. 

Everytime I am trying to update the report I receive the following error message :

Also I can not load my organisation Dynamics data. 

 

What can I do ? 

 

Thank you 

 

Regards

Which authentication method do you select here? Can you edit and update the credential successfully in Power BI Service? Is gateway used here? Can you refresh the dataset properly in Power BI Desktop with the same authentication?

 

Best Regards,

Herbert

I'm having the exact same issue but trying to connect to salesforce data. It was working everyday until yesterday

We were able to solve the situation by resetting the profile of the user we are using to connect from PowerBI to salesforce.

Hi, I am having this issue "Failed to update data source credentials" when trying to connect to Dynamics 365 from within Power BI. I am using OAuth2 authentication. I do not however get this error when logging into Dynamics 365 using the same method from Power Bi desktop, but after I publish to Power BI cloud then I get this issue happening. Can anyone help? Thanks.

I have managed to fix the problem. When two-factor authentication is active for an account, it does not seem to work on Power BI cloud. Turning this off has fixed the issue.

I am having this issue also. The data source is using Web.Contents URL and should work with Anonymous access, header token is although provided.

My O365 Adoption datasource refresh started failing last week (though I only got the notification today.

I happened to change my password today, so went to update the credentials (OAuth) on the datasource... boom! Can't update credentials:
