    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Here is a similar thread in which a workaround is mentioned. Could you go to check if it works in your scenario? :smileyhappy:



    Solution:

     

    Change the logon user for Service "On-premises data gateway service" (PBIEgwService) to "Local System Account".

     

    1. RUN services.msc
    2. Search "Power BI Gateway - Enterprise Service" in list of services, and click
    3. In TAB "Log On" change to "Local System Account"
    4. Restart "Power BI Gateway" Service

     

    Regards
