You need to install gateway on a system running 24*7, so that whenever schedule refresh occurre it will be available to send data to power bi web
You can choose any production server/vm for this purpose
Also it's not mandatory but recommend to have dedicated server for gateway so that it will not have any resource issue.
Hi @arvindsingh802,
Actually I have installed a connector for mysql in order to get data from the source with Power Bi Desktop. is there any other process without any connectors using can we get data into the power bi.
Hi Team,
let me know I have installed a connector for mysql in order to get data from the source with Power Bi Desktop. is there any other way with out using any connectors caan we fetch data into power bi. report
for custom connectors you will require gateway in place
so your approach is correct you only need to migrate your gateway to a production system running 24*7 to resolve current issue.
