I have a server that runs on linux. As I've read other posts, it's not possible to install the gateway on a linux without using Virtual Machine.
Just wondering if anything has changed, if there is a way around without using Virtual Machine.
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
It is still not supported in Linux at the moment. You need to install the gateway using Virtual Machine. To make Power BI better, you can submit your request at Power BI Ideas and vote it up.
