Excel Files that have an PBI Live Connection - Log in prompts
Recently I upon trying to refresh data in an Excel I started to be prompted to log in to my microsoft account even when I was already logged in. Though the issue only happened with select files. I realized that it only happens when the Excel file is trying to refresh data that is associated to a Power BI (PBI) Live Connection.
I've tried logging out of everything and relogging, it didn't work. I've tried changed my password to prompt a legit new log in to see if it reset the credential token and still nothing.
Just curious if anyone has encountered this issue and if they identified a work around. Thank you!
