    Hey Anonymous

     

    Seems like you are still issue with this, can you tell what you see when you go to app.powerbi.com and click manage gateways, as shown below

     

     

    Also under your dataset, select your dataset, and check what are the gateway settings?

UPDATE: I was able to publish a file which has data from an Excel file imported into it. However, so far no luck doing the same, when I am using a file which is connected to a live SQL Server database.

    Hello, I finally got it to work, after googling a solution. I had to go to Manage Gateways within PowerBI, and had to "Add Data Source", and type in the server and credentials. Seems to be working now, thanks!
