    Hi jaryszek,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community.

    When using Azure Key Vault, configuring the gateway correctly is essential, even if you are directly connecting to your Azure Key Vault. Here are some reasons why configuring the gateway is important:

    •  The gateway ensures that your on-premises data sources can securely connect to Azure services. This is crucial for maintaining a secure and reliable connection to Azure Key Vault.
    • Proper gateway configuration can help optimize the performance of your data refresh and publishing processes. It ensures that the data transfer between your on-premises environment and Azure services is efficient.
    • The gateway provides an additional layer of security by managing the credentials and ensuring that the data transfer is secure.
    •  If you encounter issues with the Azure Key Vault connector, having the gateway configured correctly can help in troubleshooting and identifying the root cause of the problem.
