How do I add a Salesforce Connection as a data source in corporate gateway?
Hi Anonymous,
Based on your description, when you combine on-premises data source and Salesforce data source in a dataset, you are not able to use on-premises gateway to set refresh for the dataset, right? If that is the case, the issue is caused by that on-premises gateway doesn’t work with online data sources, this is a known issue that has been submitted in the following link and the feature that using on-premises gateway to work with online data sources is under review, , please vote it.

To work around the issue , please use the personal gateway to schedule refresh for your dataset when combining Salesforce data source and other on-premises data sources.
Thanks,
