Hi, I have been trying to create a report using multiple data sources, some are 'DirectQuery to AS' and the rest are either Excel (web) or one which is 'Dataflows'. On the desktop everything is fine ...

    Hi samc_26 -Dataflows and Datamarts rely on cloud-based connections and have specific requirements for compatibility. The message you're seeing indicates that the DirectQuery connections you're using for Analysis Services (AS) aren't supported within the current cloud environment you're using for Dataflows or Datamarts.

    You need to ensure that you're using the on-premises gateway correctly for Analysis Services (AS) connections. This may require switching from personal mode to standard mode in your gateway setup.

     

    • To create the correct connections:
      • Go to Manage Gateways in Power BI Service.
      • Ensure the gateway is properly configured to support DirectQuery to AS.
      • You may need to delete and re-add the data sources under Enterprise Mode Gateway instead of using personal cloud connections.

     

    • Switch from Personal Mode to Standard Mode Gateway for AS.
    • Recreate dataflows, if necessary, within the Dataflows editor.
    • If you’re facing issues with the Analysis Services connection, check its credentials and ensure the gateway is set to handle DirectQuery.

    Hope this inputs helps to sort the issue.
