Onprem connection not appearing as source connection

I created a connection to an onprem SQL Server in Fabric:

In Fabric Data Factory, I created a data pipeline and added a Copy activity. But when I went to set the onprem SQL Server as the source, the connection does not appear:

Why is that? Thank you in advance for the feedback!

Understood it is a hard blocker, and we are actively working on this. Will share ETA when we have a concrete ETA. 

Just so I know for sure, when you say On-premise Data Gateway, are you referring to:

Thank you.

What's the ETA? 
This is a very hard blocker for many large enterprise customers.

on-premises access needs On-premises Data Gateway, which is not supported yet. You can refer to Differences between Data Factory in Fabric and Azure - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
