Custom Connector - Scheduled Refresh Data Credentials

Hi, I have built a custom connector (Ninjav3), and works well in Desktop.  I have set up personal gateway and the connector is recognised, the only way it is picked up is via the Onedrive Documents folder, which i think may be an issue.

When attempting to update the connector in service I get the below error, despite the credentials window to API site opening and working. Obviously the issue lies in the path but i have no idea how to amend this in Visual Studio. Before using Fiddler the error was 'Failed to resolve name 'ninja v3'.

and below is the TestConnection snippet from Visual Studio:

Cannot find anything about this, any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Hi @jogrun87 

My guessing is that you will need to certify your Custom Connector. Besides you don't need a Gateway to use your custom connector.

Have you configured your gateway so it's recognized in the Power BI service?
