How to set gateway settings for file protocol

Hi, I manage to set connection via web connector to file protocol in PBI Desktop (path like file://datamarket.company.com/Extract/filename.txt)

But once I try to set up refresh via gateway on pbi service I have error that I need to provide URL with http or https.

Do you have any idea how to set this data source settings for file protocol?
