I have a Power BI Services dataset (Power BI model created with Power BI desktop) and created a Excel pivot table using "Analyze in Excel". I would like to view and work with this Pivot table in Power BI Services.
I have tried:
- Importing the local Excel file to Power BI using "Uploading your Excel file to Power BI". When using/updating the pivot table I first get a Data Connection security warning. When selecting "yes" i get an error "External data refresh error".
- Linking to the Excel file on OneDrive using "Connect, manage and view Excel in Power BI". I get the same warning followed by the same error. This used to work back in June (99% sure).
I have tried both "Use the authenticated users account" and "None" options in the Excel Services Authentication Settings on the Data connection in the Excel file.
Does anyone know what Microsoft changed and/or how to make this work?
