From this forum, i understood that Power BI service connects to the SQL datasource using the credentials provided in datasource settings for windows authentication and basic authentication, so it never uses logged in user credentials to connect to SQL datasource?
If its true the what is the difference between basc authentication and windows authentication here? i am talking in perspective of credentials powerbi uses to connect to SQL datasource. is there any document/reference explaining this in detail?
As per my understanding when i use windows authentication in my connection, application uses logged in domain user credentials to connect to datasource but here if powerbi service is using the static credentials provided at design time. Please share your thoughts on this.
