Gateway connection’s toggle button and radio button for choosing Gateway greyed out in Power BI

Issue: Gateway connection’s toggle button and radio button for choosing Gateway greyed out in Power BI Service. Refresh fails with below error.

Gateway connections greyed out and data sources duplicated:

Resolution: We used REST API to bind dataset to Gateway since the UI options were greyed out.

Bind the dataset to a Gateway REST API: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/bindtogatewayingroup  

  • Possible cause of the issue is that there could be a glitch in the UI i.e. frontend which did not allow the dataset to be attached to a Gateway - so you saw the options greyed out and refresh failure error message "No available gateway"
  • Since UI was not allowing us to bind dataset to GW, we tried a programmatically approach. We used REST APIs to choose GW or bind dataset to GW and it was successful.
