    As this is an On Prem server, are you using On Prem data gateway? And can you plz confirm whether the server on which the gateway was set up is able to acess the On Prem SQL server?

      Hi Laxendra ,

      I found the relevant link and I think you can look into it:

      A network-related or instance-specific error occurred - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn

      Once I've connected to SQL Server and configured the gateway, selecting a corresponding destination allows me to store it.

       

       

       

      Best Regards
