Hi

Do you mean I have to set up an on-premise gateway on my PC for the 'MS Exchange' separately? Then how to remove it from the list of Gateway connections in the Service? there is no option I can remove it from there unless I remove it from the Desktop.

Just can you please tell me if the email address I setup should be the same username I use as PowerBI account?

Hi Alirezam,

If you only use the cloud data sources in your report, you not need to set up a gateway to handle refresh. They should be required if your report contains on-premises type Datasource or mixed two type of data sources.

Data refresh in Power BI 

Your data source credentials should as the same as you used on power bi desktop or refresh operation not triggered due to data credentials not matched.
