Hi,
I have created the Power BI report using the On-premise SQL database, I am using windows authentication in the report. but when I am publishing the report I am getting below error on the Power BI service
" This report couldn't access the data source because it doesn't have permission. Choose another data gateway, or contact the gateway administrator"
I am trying to create a data source, while creating the new data source using the windows authentication the below error giving
"The on-premises data gateway's service account failed to impersonate the user."
Hi @AkkiDev
When putting in the Gateway credentials can you confirm that you are using DOMAIN\UserName and then the password?
And can you also confirm that the Authentication Method is "Windows"
