Hi webportal,

 

I did it like below successfully. Please check out.

      Hi webportal,

       

      Please check out the data gateway if there is any gateway been created automatically. If there is an error message like below, please share it with me. 

      I would also suggest you file support ticket here. It's a weird issue.
