On-Premise Data Gateway: Data source access error

Hi bert631,
It requires an Enterprise or Business Intelligence edition of SQL Server Analysis Services when you connect live to SSAS 2012 from Power BI.
In your scenario, you would need to upgrade SQL Server 2012 Standard to SQL Server 2016 Standard, alternatively, you can perform a edition upgrade to change the edition of SQL Server 2012 to Enterprise or Business Intelligence edition.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
You need to use Analysis server username and password which means Analysis server running user name and password to set gateway when you are using Cubes or Models
