No Windows Authentication in Edit Credentials

[jcoolen09]

I had no issues with refreshing and connecting my report when using it on Power Bi Desktop, however when I publish the report, it is unable to refresh because it cannot connect to a data source. This data source uses Windows authentication in Power Bi Desktop, but that isn't an option in Edit Credentials in the Power Bi service when published. 

In Power Bi Desktop, within Transform Data , there are steps that will get a token (using Windows Authentication), and then pass that token to the next source. This works in desktop, but I am unable to get a token when it is published. Can anyone help?

Data source settings (all works in Power Bi Desktop)

After publishing, in Power Bi Service (unable to connect, and no option of Windows Auth)

Hi @jcoolen09 

Unfortunately Web URL sources do not support Windows Authentication. You would need to chat to your provider and see if they have an alternative authentication method with one of the support methods.
