I have the following situation:
User A publishes a Power BI desktop model (model_A) that pulls data from SQL Server X
User B publishes a Power BI desktop model (model_B) that pulls data from SQL Server X
in order to enable Scheduled Refresh, a Data Gateway is needed. A few questions:
1. Do you need just one Data Gateway?
2. Do you Download the Power BI Gateway standard mode and install it on the computer with the SQL Server X?
3. Does it matter whose e-mail address the Gateway is under?
4. Do you need to add users e-mail addresses to the Gateway?
Thanks for any help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
