Create Fabric/Power BI Gateway Programmatically?
Hi Don-Bot,
Happy to see you here in the Microsoft Fabric Community!
Currently, you cannot create a Power BI gateway programmatically using APIs; it must be manually installed and registered.
Install an on-premises data gateway | Microsoft Learn.
Once the gateway exists, you can automate managing data sources using the Power BI REST API.
Gateways - Create Datasource - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn.
By using these APIs, you can automate the management of data sources within your Power BI gateways, reducing the need for manual intervention.
Refer to the Microsoft documentation below for detailed information on the available endpoints.

Hi v-sgandrathi and lbendlin ,I didn't mean install the gateway on premises. I meant setup the connection in the Power BI Service.
Actually v-sgandrathi in reading your reply I believe you may have the answer with create datasource. I will try that out and get back to you (accept as solution or not)
Sorry for the confusion I'll edit my post
