No Options for Creating a Dataset

I have set up a gateway to allow PowerBI to communicate with my on-premise Analysis Services data source.  The gateway status indicates it is online and the data source accessed through the gateway also appears to be online.  However, when I go to Settings => Datasets, there are no options available.  As far as I can tell, it appears that everything up to this point is configured correctly, but there are no options to select for creating the dataset.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

  • You create datasets in workspaces, not where you are showing above. The best way to create a dataset is to use Power BI Desktop to connect do the same datasource in the gateway, then publish it to a workspace.

     

    Then in the dataset settings, you connect it to the gateway so it can refresh.
