Gateway not available when using append query sourced from multiple data sources

[PaulBFelix]

This issues is similar to the following post, but slightly different.

Can-t-refresh-data-after-appending-queries-PowerBIGateway-14-16

Scenario 1

Query 1 is sourced from SSAS.  Gateway setup and verified to work for this data source.

Query 2 is sourced from SFDC.  Oath2 credentials are used.

Query 3 uses the "append to new" function to combine Query 1 and Query 2.

This scenario works fine in Power BI descktop including refresh.  In the Power BI service, the gateway is unavailable; not able to refresh.

Scenario 2

Query 1 is sourced from SSAS.  Gateway setup and verified to work for this data source.

Query 2 is sourced from SSAS.  Gateway setup and verified to work for this data source.

Query 3 uses the "append to new" function to combine Query 1 and Query 2.

This scenario works fine in Power BI desktop and in the Power BI service.  The gateway is available and enables refresh.

Question:  Is scenario 1 a known bug?  If so, please provide the ticket number and status.  If not, please let me know how to make scenario 1 refresh in the Power BI service.

Thank you,

Paul

Hi @PaulBFelix,

For #1, current on-premise gateway not support oauth credentials, I think the issue may related to this.

I'd like to suggest you to use personal gateway to instead.

On-premises data gateway OData OAuth2

Combine enterprise gateway and online data sources

I'm not understanding your reply, v-shex-msft.  Why would I need a gateway to access Salesforce?

Hi @PaulBFelix,

Your report has multiple datasources, if it only contains salesforce, you not need to use gateway to manage it.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.  Please let me know if this is not the correct forum.
