how to setup Power BI apps in Business Central

Posted on by 14
With the new BC 2024 release wave 2, version 25.1, there are apps specific to each are of Business Central:
I already have the prerequisites met as my user has a Power BI license, given that I am able to download the demo reports of Power BI and view them in BC.
However when I try to install the list of apps, I can see the reports working but this is with the sample data. On those reports, when I click "Connect your data" to not view the app with sample data and instead connected with a company in an environment, I get a "Refresh failed" error and am asked to connect your data prompt again.
For screenshot 1, which of the three options should be chosen, update workspace and app, update only workspace without updating app, or install another copy of the app?
For screenshot 2, I have now tried this multiple times, with the production full URL, just the tenant ID, the word "production" for the environment, the company name in the environment field, the company display name in that field, and likewise both in the company field. What should go in each field?
For screenshot 3, I had no control over any of the fields, and my only authentication method available was OAuth2. When I clicked sign in and connect it did not work; this was using the account that already had the Power BI license assigned.

    The attachment appears to be corrupted and cannot be downloaded.
    I have tested this function before, and I hope the following information can give you some hints.
     
    In addition, this feature requires a Power BI Premium license, so you need to confirm whether your environment has it.
     
    Thanks
