Connect PBI dataflow to ADLS Gen 2 located different regions
Hi darwindat ,
The Power BI workspace tenant region should be the same as the storage account region. (please refer this official article. Configuring dataflow storage to use Azure Data Lake Gen 2 - Power BI | Microsoft Docs)
You can move the workpace if you have Premium capacity.

Hi v-chenwuz-msft, thanks for the reply.
My question was about a normal ADLS Gen2 storage account, not the storage account that stores data created by the Dataflow. Basically, we have procedures to copy data from SQL server to that ADLS Gen2. Now I create a PBI dataflow and I want to ingest data from that ADLS Gen2 account. But if the PBI dataflow's location (same as PBI Service) is not the same as the one of ADLS Gen2, I fail to connect (as seen in the screenshot above).
Do you have any tips for that? Thanks!

Hi darwindat ,
Can you try some other authentication methods, such as key authentication?
Maybe this helps and you can refer to it.
