Has this been resolved? When I first installed PBI about a year ago I used a personal gateway. I am revisiting the software now and realized I rather use an On-premises data gateway. 

 

I went through the process of setting up the on premise gateway, but when I go to set my gateway connection on datasets, it only list Power BI - Personal as an option and will not let me select anything else. This is despite the fact that when I go to manage my gateways, only my on premise gateway shows in the list, without any personal gateways being listed. 

 

Thanks.

hi etrav87,
- The ability to remove the personla gateway from the list should be going live in the next few weeks. It will remove the personal gateway automatically if you haven't used it in 30 days.

- Here's a super helpful video by Adam Saxton on how to get the gateway to show up on your list:

- The personal gateway is not expected to show up under manage Gateways, only on-premises data gateways show up there.

 

Thanks!
