So I feel like this is pretty simple but I am still a power query newb and need some help.

I have a 2019 and 2020 inventory file, which I have appended into one query. I then spit that out into a pivot table. I am adding new data every Monday to the 2020 inventory file. The queries are from a web source, our sharepoint. It all works totally fine, updates etc, on my system. However, if I were to dump new data in to the source 2020 file, and expect one of my coworkers to be able to enter the file and hit refresh (like if I forgot to that week), it throws them errors about accessing web content, credentials, etc.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Not sure what I can do here.
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
So just an update to this, i *think* the users can just click "use my windows credentials" twice (since it makes them do it for both files Im querying to) and they shouldnt see it again. Just wanted to update if anyone else stumbles here looking for the same answer.
