No, it doesn't. I can't add manually service principal to datasource users on GUI. 

It wokrs when I use PowerShell 7 with  DataGateway module (Install-Module -Name DataGateway, require PowerShell higher than 6.2.2) and  when I run connect commands: Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount and Login-DataGatewayServiceAccount  (tested by using user account, not as a service prinipal - app registration). Do we have any solution for PowerShell 5.1? Is it necessary to authenticate by uisng  Login-DataGatewayServiceAccount ?

Please check if you have given the appropriate values for the parameters applied in command:

-GatewayClusterId

-GatewayClusterDatasourceId

-Identifier : provide the object id of service principal
