Dear Community,
I am currently trying to refresh my dataset in Power BI Online with the "scheduled refresh" possibility.
Now the issue is the following: If I go under settings-> datasets->"dataset name" in the part datasource credentials the error message appears:
"Your data source can't be refreshed because the credentials are invalid. Please update your credentials and try again.""
The point is that I use the same credentials as in Power BI Desktop. There the connection to the Azure SQL DB works all fine. I also only included one single table to test the connection but it still does not work.
Here the query:
Source = Sql.Database("servername", "databasename"),
dbo_Countries = Source{[Schema="dbo",Item="Countries"]}[Data]
in
dbo_Countries
This is the error message if I try to edit the credentials in the online version:
Failed to update data source credentials: Login failed for user 'username'.Hide details

Another point: The same user for the same database works fine for scheduled refresh when my colleague uses it for his projects.
I really struggle now to find new ideas how i could solve this issue. Does someone have an idea how I could solve this issue or what might cause it?
Btw: I could find the following post here in the forum which seems to explain a similar issue. But to be honest, i can not see what i have to do with this solution.
Thanks a lot for your help.
