On-Premise data Gateway connection to Azure Analysis Service

Question

Hello All,I am trying to create On-Premise data Gateway connection from Power BI service to Azure Analysis Service (AAS) as my AAS has firewall blockage, but the new connection box only shows Windows authentication option. Is there a way using which we can create connection using different authentication methods ?&nbsp;&nbsp;Also, in the "Firewall" pane, the "Allow access from the Power BI Service" has been turned off.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

according to docs AAS supports:- Entra cached- Entra uid and pwd in the connection string- Windows authentication (Integrated security)&nbsp;&nbsp;I expect that configuration to allow you to pass to AAS the user&nbsp;is running the report based on AAS cubes.I think it should be ok since the pbi models should be live connected on AAS and the users running reports must have access to the cube that could leverage the security (OLS and RLS).&nbsp;Learn about connecting to Azure Analysis Services servers | Microsoft Learn&nbsp;which kind of authentication would you use instead?&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hi&nbsp;Rohitb&nbsp;AAS is a cloud service therefore no Gateway is needed for connection to it.Maybe turning On&nbsp;can let you in.&nbsp;

if you want to lock down your instance to only specified IPs you need to use a gateway.switching "allow access from the pbi" to on will allow all power bi service IPs on the firewall.
