Cannot remove AS connector from Power BI portal
I did finally figure out that the new Enterprise Gateway is configured in a totally different way. Settings/Manage Gateways. Really obvious unless you are used to configuring data sources the old way.
Still, no idea how to remove the old data source.
Hi, Im having the same issue. Have you managed to resolve this? Ive created all the data sources within the Manage Gateway portal but can view these in when i want to connect to AS.

No, have found no way to remove the connector. And I'm about to 'decomission' another Analysis Server connector and I expect that will be similarly bound till eternity to my Power BI service. Hope someone on the team is aware of this!

bdelaney Did you submit a bug? As a side note, you don't need to decomission an AS Connector... you just install the Enterprise Gateway on the same machine, and your connections will automatically move over to the new Enterprise Gateway.

Anonymous no, I did not submit a bug. maybe I'll wait and see what happens when I 'decomission.'
I'll look at the upgrade link today.That would be very smooth indeed if it works like that.
Is it my imagination, or has the preview Enterprise Gateway actually been updated in the last few weeks?
I just downloaded it earlier today and installed it on top of an AS connector. Before I thought I found that impossible. And consequently, the two are running side by side right now. Weird.
