Power BI Can't access streaming data sets from OneDrive & Sharepoint when MFA is enabled. Premier Support advised "OAuth against Azure Active Directory with Multi Factor Authentication turned on is unsupported at current stage"
Please Support MFA!

RE: MFA Authentication
Killin' me. We need this bad.
RE: MFA Authentication
I am having the same problem. At least we should have an workaround to this problem.
RE: MFA Authentication
Can we get some sort of update from Microsoft here? With security concerns this day and age and all the phishing attempts across the world. MFA is becoming the standard for all secured users.
To make people go in and re-authenticate every few days is not acceptable. Power Apps and other tools have ways to setup the system to handle this on an ongoing basis. Why doesn't Power BI?
RE: MFA Authentication
was there any workaround or update on this? i need to access CRM DYNAMICS API using OAuth2 and i believe the authentication method gets reset to anonymous after a week due to MFA.
RE: MFA Authentication
We use MFA for pretty much everything, from O365, Azure to Sendgrid. None of this now works in Power BI. This really needs to change since we will not allow admins to connect without MFA to any service we subscribe to.
Please enable the functionality to authenticate to reporting services with MFA
RE: MFA Authentication
using MFA is crucial to maintaining the security of our accounts and the data that sits within powerBI
RE: MFA Authentication
C'mon, MFA is quite import and not being able to access it goes against its purpose
RE: MFA Authentication
This make powerbi useless and the "workaround" doesn't work either. As soon as I turn MFA back on, the data stops refreshing.
"The currently available workaround is to use "Basic" Authentication or an account without MFA enabled."

RE: MFA Authentication
Without scheduled data refresh, power BI becomes Powerless. Please fix this with MFA enabled.
RE: MFA Authentication
This is critically important. Please allow for this.
