and then when I click on edit credintials, I have this:
Then no matter what I enter in the windows authentication, it doesn't work, I tried the following:
- my email
- my windows log_in
- AzureAD\myUsername
- fileserver\sharedfile\username
- I started my browser as 'run as an administrator'
none of them are working. Can someone tell me what is wrong, please !!!!!
After installing the gateway with you account, you can go to configuration and Manage gateways like this:
There you can add a source and check if the autentication works. Once you manage to connect there you will be able to use the same credentials on dataflows.

Hi. You probably need an On Premise Data Gateway installed on the pc in order to connect DataFlows to an on premise data source like the csv with that path.
Then you can connect that way.
