Add oauth(2) as an option to authenticate for e.g. web.contents.

This is enabled via Custom Connectors: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/startingtodevelopcustomconnectors

RE: oauth

PLEASE add OAuth refresh compatibility with Power BI Report Server. Badly needed.

RE: oauth

If custom connectors are only for the desktop, how can on premise report server schedule updates to OAuth data sources, such as appinsights?

RE: oauth

This is blocking a project of mine. A custom connector isn't supported in Reports Server

RE: oauth

Is there an alternative for accessing AAD data without writing a custom connector? Graph API requires oauth2.

RE: oauth

Custom connectors are great but sadly it seems they won't be supported in Excel for some time (if ever):

"The Excel team has decided not to support custom data connectors just yet. They would like to do it eventually but aren't committing to any particular timeframe" on May 9, 2019, from https://github.com/microsoft/DataConnectors/issues/82#issuecomment-491022418

Generic support for OAuth2 would be extremely helpful.

RE: oauth

This is hindering most of the users from using PowerBI, especially the difficulty in developing the custom connector and unavailability of the Power BI Report Server to pull the data from Web easily
