CustomerThermometer - Edit credentials Issue

Good day Team,

 

I have built an report and it works great, over the last two months I been refrashing the data manauly via Power BI Desktop app. All my data sets work fine even the one from CustomerThermometer.

 

Today I have setup an gatway so I can have this report update at 10am each day autimaticly issue I'm faceing is in the Data source credentials tab I can't get CustomerThermometer to work. Am I missing somthing? 2021-01-13 13_28_01-Power BI I1.png

@v-yingjl That's exactly what I mentioned in my previous reply to turn on that feature on the gateway.

You sure did and thank you, issue i see is the gateway is not instaled right and no one knows what the email for it is... so looks like we will need to instal it again. I don't have acess to do it so need to wait on them.

 

As for the personal gateway I don't have that option at all. 

 

I will report back once we have the new gateway up and running 🙂 thank you all

Hi @Snowy34 ,

Try to download enterprise gateway and configure a web connection for your data source, choose the suitable authentication method:

@parry2k Good day,

 

It uses an API key that extracts data from customer thermometer. It works fine when I open up the pbix file and refrash. But when I try it via the gatway I'm getting no luck. The API kay is same so I'm not sure why its not working.
