    Hi kooroshpashaei Personal Gateway is not what you need here.  You'll need the On Premise Data Gateway.

Hi Ross, The main problem is I cannot access to Power BI GatewayPersonal setting so that I can change the path of data source. How we can change it ? For instance how we can change path from C:\DAT207x to own location. ?

    Hi Ross, I uninstalled the Personal Gateway and installed on-premises . But I could not find how to set my own folder on my PC as a place to refresh data?

      Once your on-premise gateway is installed and configured, there is an option inside your Power BI Service (apps.powerbi.com) which lets you manage gateways.  Here you configure all of the data sources.  To find this, look for the Cog icon in the top bar, and find the option "Manage Gateways"
