Problem upgrading data source in PowerBi web

Hi everybody,
We have a customer with NAV installed on a server. To connect to the server via rdp, I must use a VPN.
In my laptop, I've created a PowerBi report, adding 3 data sources from nav. Of course, VPN must be on, and when adding the data sources I didn't have any problem, because I've added in the credentials one of the users we use to start session in NAV. Also, when I refresh data soruces, the changes in data are shown correctly.
But when I publish the report into the web version, and try to refresh data, I get a credential error. I'm trying to add into the credentials the same NAV account that i configure when adding the data sources into the desktop version, but I still get the error.
Why can be this happenning?
Thank you very much

For the web version it is the azure server that tries to connect to the datasource. For that to work you need to have a "publicly" published web service that does not require a vpn to connect.5

That's the difference with the desktop version? I think I'm n a trouble now...
As I remember you can configure it using a on-prem SQL connection but not really using the Dynamics NAV datasource functionality.
