Hi. The picture shows that there are two sources unreachable. You need to add those two to the gateway. Only the Gateway Administrator can ADD sources. 

If you add a user to a source you just say "you can schedule refresh a dataset with this source" but you are not allowing them to add a new source. If you want them to add a new source you need to add the account as Gateway Administrator like this doc
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/data-integration/gateway/service-gateway-manage#manage-gateway-admi...

People in there would be able to add new sources. The users can only schedule refresh.

I hope that helps,
