While trying to connect to Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 through Power BI Desktop we got the below error

Came as surprise cause the user was had the owner role assigned to the container

It turned out we need to assign the Storage Blob Data Reader role to the user.

After assigning the role we were able to connect successfully.

Hope it helps..
