Add the ability to Sort (A,Z) and Categorize Gateway Data Sources

On the Manage Gateways page, add the ability to sort data sources ascending or descending within a particular gateway. Also, add the ability to categorize data sources within a gateway by 1.) Data Source type and/or 2.) Custom categorization. My team currently has 30+ gateway data sources to manage, and without organization of the gateway data sources, it's difficult to find what you are looking for as an administrator of the gateway.

This is a great idea! We have close to 100 connections on our gateway, and even though I can do a CTRL + F to search, having the ability to sort the list alphabetically would be extremely useful.

Please add this! I also saw an Idea to split the window so the datasource list it scrollable separately from the properties, which would be very helpful. It didn't have many votes yet... https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/38505352-separate-scrolls-for-gateways-pane-and-settings-pa

A-Z should be the default sort order. Also add swich by date created (and date changed).

Honestly, this should be a no-brainer! If we have these capabilities on File Explorer, why not have them in here? This will make us more productive and efficient when managing our Gateway clusters! Please do it!!

Sort and search is coming up soon, but categorization is not planned. Please keep voting for categorization.

Also allow Category/folder level security so we can allow users to create/manage their own connections.

Also allow Category/folder level security so we can allow users to create/manage their own connections. We have hundreds of connections to manage.

Definitely agree with folders, categorization and sorting.
And please put security on the folders, so we can allow users to create/manage their own connections!

We are a big company and it's just a mess even with naming conventions.
