    Hi mak82pk,

     

    A Pro license is required to use the gateway. Moreover, a Pro license is required for users when interacting with a dashboard or report that makes use of the gateway.

     

    Reference: On-Premises Data Gateway FAQ

     

    Best regards,

Our company INTEREL is looking to buy the license of Power BI Pro. We will embed the URL generated using Power BI in our web application. The database is on SQL server 2012.

The web application and database will be deployed on the client’s server and their administrator will configure the gateway to update dataset to refresh the Power BI report on that server.

We will develop and publish the reports and the clients will only view the reports. So in the beginning we are planning to go with the following plan:

1 Pro user and 14 frquent users.

What I need to know, does the administrator of the client’s server also need to have Pro user account  to configure gateway or he can login using frequent user account.

 

Your kind assistance will be greatly appreciated.
