Connect Power BI to TFS #9

Open BinnyJohn opened 6 years ago

BinnyJohn commented 6 years ago

Today I can connect Power BI to Visualstudio.com but no way to connect to TFS? How can I connect Power BI to TFS?

@BinnyJohn, there are some challenges with TFS with regards to the authentication. I created a prototype, but it prompts users for credentials 4 times before it actually starts the load. I will need to consult with other Power Query experts before I can resolve it.

I did contact Power BI team and they agreed that this is a bug in the product. There should be only 1 prompt for password. I will release version for TFS when the issue is fixed in Power BI Desktop. I would like to avoid releasing product which feels broken from the day one.

Any update on if this bug has been fixed? Opening VSTS is now in the product (as beta), but there is currently no solution for opening on-prem TFS, and I would love to give your solutions a try.
