Error when refreshing data

Hello everyone, 

As I was testing a very simple R script to check if the refresh was working properly on my dataset, I came accross this error:

These are the two data sources that I am using (R and SharePoint) and the credentials seem fine:

 Any ideas on where the error is from ? We use an enterprise gateway so I don't think it is a gateway problem.

Hi @Anonymous,

AFAIK, power bi required to use personal data gateway to handle the R/python type data source and refresh.

Use personal gateways in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

You can refer to the below link to know more about install and configure the data gateway.

Install an on-premises data gateway | Microsoft Docs
