    Power Query SQL connections - password saved with file?

    Hi,

    I have created some files that get data from SQL Server Database by Power Query.
    I need to share these files to my colleagues.

    How can I set credentials so they will not be prompted about it? Maybe somewhere inside macro?

    I have only refreshing event during opening file (ThisWorkbook.Connections("Query - MyQueryName").Refresh)

    Is your profile up-to-date? Are you still using Excel 2010?
