I have created an application in PowerBI Desktop which connects and pulls data from 8 Oracle 10g database servers. (about 32 tables, less than 200K rows, it works fine). I have published my application into cloud, then installed PowerBI personal Gateway. While trying to refresh I get the following error.
Failed to update data source credentials: We are unable to connect to the data source. Please ensure that data source is accessible.Hide details
