    Hi Anonymous 


    Based on your error it is the privacy settings when you are joining data from Simba Athena and the Web.


    What you would need to do is to set the Privacy settings to Organizational for this to work.

     

    You can update it as per documentation: Re: Credentials required for public website?

Hi Anonymous 

 

I would suggest installing the Standard version of the on-premise gateway. And have this installed on a PC/Server that never goes off. That should allow it to not have to re-authenticate.

 

Here are more details on how to install: Install an on-premises data gateway | Microsoft Learn

    Thanks for responding, Gilbert.  I have tried to set up the gateway as you noted a while ago, but it tells me it is incorrectly configured (no mention on what the issue is) and I don't have the expertise to trouble shoot it.

     

    In the meantime, the personal gateway has worked fine until now.  I'm now getting this error message (which is a bit like greek, unfortunately):
    Underlying error code: -2147467259

        Thanks so much, Gilbert: I'm able to refresh now - hopefully it will autorefresh in the morning.  One question, though - how would anyone know to use the "organizational" setting for access to a public website?  Not exactly intuitive...?
