External Users - share on-prem gateway data source

Hi PBI Community,

 

I have a working on-prem data gateway established, with a SQL data source

This data source has an external user added.

 

I am attempting to allow the external user (to my tenancy) to use the data source defined on this gateway within their tenancy.

 

Is this possible?

 

thankyou for your time

Ben

    benmc,

    Currently, it is not possible to directly add external users to gateway data source. 

    As a workaround, consider to create accounts for external users in your domain in the admin center of Office 365, then add the users to gateway data source.

    Regards,
    Lydia

    Hi guys - is this still not possible in 2023 to share the data sources from an on-premises data gateway with external users/tenants? 🙂
