Hi Dong Li,
Thanks for following up and i understand your guidance as setting up the gateway to link to the server. Currently mine shows the file path on the shared drive only and so does not work. Seems that to do what you have guided, i would need to work with the IT admin to set it up, as need info on the server the shared drive is hosted on etc.. Perhaps as an alternative i should upload the data to SharePoint and then refresh from there, so that it will work for sure.
