Hi,
According to your post, it seems that you already have a Gateway. It should work but a little slow. If you didn't have a Gateway, you can get one following the guide below.
- If only PBI is active, Power BI Gateway – Personal is enough. Install it in the computer in which the folder is located and sign in.

Best Regards!
