    Hi icassiem ,

     

    I guess you are looking for redshift conectivity in Power BI. 

     

    Any user with appropriate database credentials can connect to redshift database.

     

    If the database is protected with firewall then On premises data gateway connection is required for Power BI service and appropriate VPN configuration is required to connect from Power BI desktop.

     

    Power BI desktop and service natively support redshift database. However you can use ODBC connection as well. 
    (Microsoft recommends native connector over ODBC). 

     

    Please refer to this page for more information: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/connectors/amazon-redshift

    I hope I answered your question.

    Yes, for ODBC connections on prem gateway is required.
