Helper VIdentify/extract Data Sources using PersonalGateways
Hello Gurus,
We're going through some Personal Gateways and its usage. We finally turned off the PersonalGateway installs using this simple command
Set-DataGatewayTenantPolicy -PersonalGatewayInstallPolicy Restricted
Also, I am able to identify all existing PersonalGateways via a combination of these commands
Get-DataGatewayCluster -Scope Organization | Where-object {($_.Type -eq "Personal") }
Get-DataGatewayCluster -Scope Organization | Where-object {($_.Type -eq "Personal") }
Next step is to idenfity all or any datasources/workspaces these personal gateways are being consumed. Any ideas on how to proceed?
TIA.

What's your rationale for caring about that?
Anyway, the tenant audit logs have sections for gateway connection creation/modification. As far as I can tell that includes personal gateways.
pvuppalaThe idea behind is to stop folks installing Personalmode and go through an Enteprise Data Gateway for compliance reasons etc., We as admins trying to put some guardrails on data sources to make sure customers follow this process.

We solve that differently - by offering the users the option to use our enterprise gateways that have much better performance, guaranteed uptime ( with multiple cluster members each) and full sets of connection drivers.
Don't forget that personal gateways are required for R and Python scheduled refreshes.

Thats exactly what I mean't when I said to we're planning to have all customers go through Enterprise gateways 🙂 For now, I'm still looking to identify what content is using Personal Gateways so we can notify the customers. I'm meeting our MS support next week so I will update on our working session.
Hi pvuppala ,
Please check if REST API Gateways - Get Datasources is what you want...
