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.
