SalesForce report/object connector login with the on premise data gateway

[Anonymous]

I want to know if i can use custom SalesForce report/object connector login  with the on premise data gateway.

Currently we can't set up the SF login on the OPDG(on premise data gateway).

Please help with any suggestions or ideas

Hi, I think there's no need for a gateway in this case, were you able to find a solution? As a workaround, you can directly connect your SF data with a 3rd party connector. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Salesforce connector in the data sources list:

After that, just grant access to your Salesforce account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Salesforce fields:

There just select the fields you need. It is also compatible with custom fields and custom objects, so you'll be able to export them through windsor.  Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
