Vnet DataGateway with PowerBi Desktop
Hello Thanks for the help.
I'm new with PowerBI. I need to connect to an Azure SQL Database which has restriccions with the allowed IP address, to solve this we create a Vnet DataGateway and We already test it and It works fine. The problem is that first we need to create the .pbix file in Power BI Desktop, but When I try to create the connection to Azure SQL it does not Connect (Because the Desktop IP is not allowed) and in Desktop there is no option to use a Vnet DataGateway for that connection. So How can I create the .pbix file to import it latter to Power BI Cloud and from there use de Vnet DataGateway?
Thanks!!

You are supposed to run your Power BI Desktop on an Azure VM that has direct line of sight to the Azure data source.
