Cannot live connect to SSAS tabular but can do the import - powerbi

I have installed SSAS tabular(2019) on my laptop and Power BI desktop (September 2021)
I make a project and deploy then I can see it in the SSMS when I connect to the analysis service. In power bi when I choose import I can see the model but when choosing the live connect it gives the error "The server you are trying to connect does not have any model or you don't have permission to access them".
As I search the net the result is because of the access permission. but I run the power bi as an administrator. I don't know which access is required and how I can check it.
can you please help me to solve this issue?

Perhaps you're running SSMS elevated, and you haven't added your individual account as an Analysis Services administrator.

Trying to change the organization in Adobe Analytics Connector for Power BI

I'm using Power BI for Desktop, trying to learn how to connect it with Adobe Analytics. So far it seems I can only connect to Adobe Analytics through the connector that Power BI has.
Screenshot of said connector
However, the first time I logged in, I chose a sandbox organization.
Now all my subsequent connections automatically default to that org. Even after I clear the Power BI permissions.
Is there any way to change the organization?

JIRA PowerBI Service data refresh not working

In my PowerBI desktop, I created a Jira dashboard report, and it works perfectly. On the Power BI desktop report, I can view all of my requested data.
Now, when I publish the report https://app.powerbi.com/ the report gets published successfully, however, when I am trying to schedule the refresh, I keep getting below error.
Failed to update data source credentials: The credentials provided for the Web source are invalid. (Source at https://jira.tools.com/.)
When I try to connect straight to my Jira, I know my credentials are accurate and working properly, and the same is true in Powerbi Desktop.
What could be the reason?
Your Jira server might be inside the firewall/inside a private network.
So, the first thing I suggest to try is setting up a Power BI Gateway. Then configure your Power BI Service refresh via that Gateway.
Useful links:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/data-integration/gateway/service-gateway-install
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/service-gateway-data-sources
You'll want to do that on a Server inside your firewall & ensure Proxy settings are correctly setup - to access Internet.
If that doesn't do it - it's probably a more subtle cause (anywhere from the network configuration to how Active Directory is tied to Jira). Let us know, we'll take it from there.

Can we create embed code without having power bi pro licencse?

I have created report in power bi but i am not able to share it client as i dont have power bi pro license, whenever i clicked on publish to web button it is showing 'Contact your admin to enable embed code creation' pop up message
Yes, you can create a share to web without having a Power BI Pro license, however it is turned off by default in the Power BI tenant settings.
This will need to be enabled by your O365 or Power BI Admin. Please note, this method of sharing is NOT secure, anyone with the url will be able to access or see the report. The URL it generates is publicly accessible. To securely share you will need Power BI Pro, and share via workspaces or apps

Power BI switching between datasources

I am new to using Power BI gateways. I have created a dashboard using Power BI Desktop connecting to the Test server. Now I have been asked to switch to Production but they wont give me access to the Production. Instead they have setup a data source using Manage Gateways in PBI Service and they are asking me to consume it in my reports. I am so confused if it is actually possible to switch my reports to Production without having access to it. I believe we cannot link PBI Desktop with the DS setup in the Gateway connections directly.
I tried parameterizing database connection so that they can switch to Live and publish it. But they raised a question if they change the password one day and there are many reports published, will they have to go through each of these reports and update with the new password.
Can anyone please provide me a solution for this?
I didn't try this approach, but you can try and check this works for you or not.
In your local Power BI file, In Data Source Settings provide the Production server name.
Give a dummy User ID and Password
Now publish the report to the Power BI Service
Ask your admin now to add appropriate Gateway to the data source. While adding gateway to the data source, the admin should asked for database Credentials and after providing information, it should work.
As I said this is not tested here, I can just hope for the best :)

Power BI Reporting Server - Portal Administrator Functionality

We've just installed the Power BI Reporting Server and we're running it in a trial based scenario. We cannot figure out how to get the Portal Administrator option to show up under the settings gear, it should be listed as Admin Portal.
Do we need to link into Office 365 to gain access to this functionality? The documentation we found only references Power BI via the Azure scenario.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-admin-portal
The documentation link provided says that,
"The admin portal is accessible to all users who are Global Admins in Office 365 or have been assigned the Power BI service administrator role."
So I think you are right, I think you need to link it with Office 365 as an Administrator or as a Power BI service Administrator.
I know this is not a Answer but a comment but I do not have the rights to comment right now.
