SharePoint source: "Anonymous" is only option

My SharePoint sources are all down with bad credentials. When I try to update them, the only Authentication Method available is "Anonymous" (not what I need). Things work fine in Desktop. I've tried many config variations and redeployments, to no avail.

 

Anyone ever run across this before?

Just an extra 2¢:

I also had this issue, tried all the things with no joy, until I noticed the "http://" on the original post, which helpfully wasnt redacted.

updated to "https://" - saved, published, refreshed - all fixed!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

In your scenario, This maybe a permission/authentication error.

 

I did the following test: please firstly go to File->Options and Settings->Data Source Settings->Global permissions in Power BI Desktop and clear permissions for stored SharePoint data source.

Change the default data source credentials (not select anonymous), after successfully importing data and publishing to web. At this time, other credential methods appear in the configure of data source credentials.
