    Hi BSLATTER ,

    By my tests, I'm afraid that the gateway can only be used in your default tenant region for Power BI.

    So I think we cannot change the region of the gateway for Power BI.

    Best Regards,

Is there any way around this?  Our PowerPlatform is hosted in AU for Power Apps/Automate, however our PowerBI default region is West US.  When configuring an on prem gateway for the PowerPlatform we have set the region to Australia East.

 

 

We are ok to dedicate this particular On Prem Gateway (region Australia) to PowerPlatform (region Australia) so don't need it for PowerBI (they have their own woring gateway with region configured to West US). We can't use their gateway since PP needs it to be in the same region (see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/regions-overview#region-mappings-for-power-automate-and-gateways)

 

We setup the new Gateway (region AU) but when trying to create a Data Source the create button is disabled. Backed end it throws a 404 - {"error":{"code":"PowerBIEntityNotFound","pbi.error":{"code":"PowerBIEntityNotFound","parameters":{},"details":[],"exceptionCulprit":1}}}

 

Any other options outside of changing the PowerBI region would resolve the issue? Can everything be migrated easily?
