Hi, hope this hleps.
The "The parameter is incorrect" error when setting up a Data Gateway connection is likely due to configuration issues. To resolve:- Check Gateway Status: Ensure the gateway is online and updated to the latest version.
- Verify Data Source: Match the data source type, credentials, and connection string in both the gateway and Power BI.
- Network Issues: Ensure no firewalls or network restrictions block gateway connectivity.
- Permissions: Verify you have the required permissions for the gateway and Power BI.
- Logs: Review gateway logs (C:\Program Files\On-premises data gateway\logs) for detailed errors.
