Power BI Refresh Error:
FIPSModeIsNotSupport

What does this error mean?

FIPS mode on the integration runtime blocks the Azure Blob connector, which requires MD5 (non-FIPS). Fix: edit diawp.exe.config in the IR install directory.

Common causes

  • 1FIPS 140-2 compliance mode is enforced on the self-hosted integration runtime machine
  • 2The Azure Blob connector requires the MD5 algorithm, which cannot operate when FIPS mode is active
  • 3The FIPS policy is set via the VM configuration or Group Policy

How to fix it

  1. 1In the self-hosted integration runtime install directory, open the file diawp.exe.config
  2. 2Add or modify the enforceFIPSPolicy element to disable FIPS policy for the runtime process
  3. 3Follow the configuration guidance at: https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/configure-apps/file-schema/runtime/enforcefipspolicy-element
  4. 4Restart the self-hosted integration runtime service after editing diawp.exe.config
  5. 5Note: Windows does not recommend enabling FIPS mode — consider whether it is strictly required by your security policy
