Gateway usage in Power BI Service

Hello,

 

I have installed a On premise data gateway on a machine that is always on. However, another developer has to use it and schedule refresh in power BI Service, do they have to install on premise gateway on their machine? 

  • No, they can use the same gateway when scheduling refreshes on their dataset

    Adding to other's post. you can add the developers as gateway administrators following the guide in this article:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-manage.

    This way, as long as they are able to access data sources from the gateway machine, they are able to use the gateway to refresh their dataset.
