Can't Connect to Blackbaud Environment - [Expression.Error]

Cole Welsh

This kid is how I'm feeling right now.

I'm trying to get the Custom Power BI Connector to work for our organization. I followed the instructions in the Github repo and the accompanying YT video, and get to the stage of connecting in Power BI when I get the following error:

I can put in my email, my password, and my Auth token, but it still throws the error. I'm completely stumped on what could cause the error, because looking on Stack Overflow/the forums/Google, it seems like that error is usually thrown when there's an issue with the data, not during sign-in? Anyone have any advice?

Thanks!

Cole

Well it turns out that all it took was me taking the 10 to write this post and then re-address the issue and I found it, but I'm leaving the post up for anyone else who has the issue.

This issue occurs when there is an erroneous space in the client_id.txt, client_secret.txt, or the subscription_key.txt files!
