Permission Issues with R script when entering Credentials

[pnelson786]

I am unable to add crendential to R script on Power Bi web page and hence cant enable scheduled refresh. 

I have connected Personal Gateway, it seems to be rejecting R script data source with an error The evaluation requires a permission that has not been provided. Data source kind: 'R'. Data source path: 'R'. Permission kind: 'NativeQuery'.

Hi @pnelson786,

Which Power BI on-premise data gateway (personal mode) do you run? 

Based on my test with on-premise data gateway (personal mode) version 14.16.6745.2, R data source can be set with WindowsWithoutImpersonation authentication and refresh successfully. 

Please update your gateway version then test again. Please also ensure your current Windows user has permission to access the R directory. 

Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu

I am using the latest Gateway same as you. Yes Windows users has permissions to R user directory. It is the admin account on the machine.

I can publish fine from my Power Bi desktop.
