Adding Custom Data Connector Troubles

[condolar]

Hi there,

I have been working on a connector, which I implement in PowerBI desktop frequently, so I can confirm it works fine in desktop.

Now I've added an On Premises Gateway I am having trouble adding the connector as a data source.

The connector shows up just fine in the dekstop gateway module, however when trying to select it from the drop-down list, it doesn't show up as an option.

We have ensured there is a TestConnection line, in accordance with the guidelines here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/samples/trippin/9-testconnection/readme

I have also followed the steps outlined here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Configuring-custom-connector-in-Power-BI-service/m-p/164424... but still to no avail.

It may of interest to note we can get it to work in the personal gateway.

Please do let me know of any other fixes that we may be missing, either in the set up or in the code of the connector.

Thanks!!
