How to setup personal gateway for Office365 excel (OneDrive)
Hi Anonymous
The URL that you displaying, is this coming from how I & the video described how to get it? This is a very important step as it gives you the exact location of the file. But if it works in Desktop, then it should also work in the Service.
Within the Refresh settings of the report, have you edited the credentials also?
Thanks
Joe
Hello JoeBarry
Thank you so much for your help to resolve this issue. We tried a lot and finally resolved the issue
It was giving issue because of having ":x:/r/" in the URL.
Faulty URL - https://biib-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/personal/Pras_bose_Company_com/Documents/INT/SalesData.xlsx
Working URL - https://biib-my.sharepoint.com/personal/Pras_bose_Company_com/Documents/INT/SalesData.xlsx

Hello JoeBarry
If we have below Web connection in Power BI Desktop which is working fine in Power BI Desktop
1) Connection Type - Web
2) Web URL: https://biibmy.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/personal/company_com/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc=%7lA7717D73-59pe-43A9-877A-5e5A185E7325%7D&file=SalesData.xlsx
3)Credential - Organizational Account
4) Privacy Level -- Any
After deploying the report in Power BI. The same will not work in Power BI Service because such authentication option will not come in service when we edit the data source.
Let us know if You are also agree with it ot any workaround.
Thanks,

I could set Gateway in Power BI cloud for an Excel, the step was needed to use OAuth2 for authentication.
