@adikota I'll update the article to add a troubleshooting section to address your issue. Until I do...

It seems like you changed the authentication method for the AutoFitComboMeter blob connection.

After you enter your EA enrollment and number of months, make sure that you leave the default value of Anonymous for Authentication method and None for Privacy setting and then Sign in--Don't worry, you'll have secure authentication in a moment.
On the next page, you should have OAuth2 set for Authentication method and None set for Privacy level. Sign in to authenticate with your enrollment. It also starts a data refresh in Power BI.

That should get you going. Please let me know if this helps.

@bandersmsft Thank you very much for the tips above on March 4th, as they were very helpful. I don't know how I would have figured that out otherwise!
