    Hi rodrigomo，

    On-premises gateway doesn't allow you to combine online data sources and on-premises 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 in your scenario, you can use the personal gateway to schedule refresh for your dataset when combining SharePoint Online data source and on-premises SQL Server data source.


    Thanks,

Hi - I've tried to use the Connect directly (seems the only available option) and still getting the same issue.  The only authentication selection I can see is: Anonymous; Windows or Basic, so no OAuth2 selection.  I've tried all of these and none see to work.

I am running into a similar issue. I have the Enterprise gatway setup on Azure VM. I am successfully able to add SQL DB and Azure Blob data source connections. But when I try to add conections to Sahepoint Folder, it thows me an error. Can you please let me know if any one has faced such issue and how did you resolve it.
