I have published my PowerBI desktop to the web. I would like to connect the dataset which is an ODBC connection so I can schedule refreshes and I am running into a wall.
I have an ODBC connection with the dsn=M2 on the server that is running PowerBI.
When I attempt to make the connection in powerbi to the database, it says access is denied. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

@Anonymous ,
Please make sure that you are creating system dsn rather than user dsn. To add ODBC datas source within gateway, please check my steps in this thread.
Also make sure you create DSN in the gateway machine.
