Hi,
Trying to find if there a way of automating the Power BI Recovery if the gateway has broken and need to restore using the recovery key ? Currently this needs to be carried as a manual process and wondering if there any way of automating this ?
@nmsivasankar,
As far as I know, there is no method to automate the process of gateway recovery. However, you can create high availability clusters of On-premises data gateway installations, which can avoid single points of failure in accessing on-premises data resources.

Thanks for the response. Client not able to afford spinning an another instance of AWS for running the HA Cluster.
@nmsivasankar,
You can submit an idea that automate gateway recovery in Power BI ideas forum.
