Data source windows username
Good afternoon all,
I've got an issue while trying to setup a gateway with a Excel file.
Have I got the wrong username ? My computer is connected to my Azure account.
I am sorry it's all in French on the error but you might recognize the type of error.
BTW, I have another gateway with my SQL database and it works. But I haven't managed to succeed with a file on my computer.
Would appreciate your help,
Orlando Picq

Hi orlandopicq ,
try instead this solution. For this solution you don't need a gateway 🙂

Hi Kathrin,
Thanks very much for your answer but it requires the file to be on OneDrive which is not my case.
If there is no other option, I will try to move the file to OneDrive but it's not that easy.
Kind regards,
