Power BI Auto Refresh AzureDevOpsServer not supported error

Error for Power BI Auto Refresh on the web:
I can connect to Azure DevOps data and work from the Power BI desktop app and can refresh the data from Azure DevOps just fine. After publishing the report to the Power BI workspace (web) We cannot set a refresh schedule and get the following

error:
"Unable to determine the data source due to unknown functions. When custom connectors are used, the error can happen if gateway doesn't have the extension enabled. Details: Query contains unknown function name: AzureDevOpsServer.AnalyticsViews.
Data source for Query1"


"You can't schedule refresh for this dataset because the following data sources currently don't support refresh:
Data source for Query1"


-We are using a personal access token to connect to the dataset.

-In the Power BI desktop app we chose the "Azure DepOps Server (Boards Only)"

I don't think that Azure DevOps needs a gateway as I have created reports before and never needed to set one up unless this is a different gateway that's external.


Is this an issue within Azure DevOps that we need to fix or is this something on the Power BI side?

Hi  @AMZBrandon 

You mentioned that you have created reports before and never needed to set gateway up , can you refresh your gateway manually ? In Power BI Service , you can see the connector "Azure DepOps Server (Boards Only)" in Manage gateways , maybe you can try to install a standard gateway to test the scheduled refresh .
