Can't connect to PowerBI service account

Hello,

 

I have installed "MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt" module and I am trying to run the "Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount" command but getting the error.

 

Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount : One or more errors occurred.
At line:1 char:1
+ Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], AggregateException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.AggregateException 

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Regards,

Krishna

      krish89 RohGoy Jasper_Baert1 julmoser stuPro finally found a solution to this issue.

      So every time you open the powershell and before running your powerBI powershell script/commands, run the following command:

      [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

        Dear Experts,

        I am new to powershell script and running below small script and getting the below error.


        Import-Module MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt
        Import-Module MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt.Profile

        $password = "mypwd" | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force
        $username = "email address removed for privacy reasons"
        $credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($username, $password)

        Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount -Credential $credential

         

         Note: my userid is working but service account is not working.

        Please help me to resolve the issue and thank you in advanced.

    same issue here.

    The script has been working just fine 3 days ago and now I started to receive this error.

    krish89  Are you using an AAD account to login or a Service Principal?
