Helper IIOne gateway - Two Power BI tenancies
We currently have two different tenancies on Office 365, with two different CRM instances. While we may combine them in the future, at this point we like them separate as they serve different audiences and have different rules around them.
My issue is, we have only one gateway installed that both instances need to receive some data from. I cannot see though a way to have one gateway serve two different CRM tenancies. Is that possible? It seems I can only enter on login account, that locks it to that instance.
We wish to avoid having to install another gateway as this is more admin and causes a network headache. Our gateway version installed is now quite old (version 14.16.6670.1 from April 2018). So I thought of upgrading the gateway in the hope that this is a feature that was added after our version. I wanted to confirm if that is the case first though, as otherwise the gateway is working well.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Hi BruceAnderson ,
Your demand is a good idea, while it is not supported to implement One gateway - Two Power BI tenancies in Power BI currently. You can post your new idea here https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas , to improve the Power BI.
It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
You can install up to two data gateways on the same computer, one running in each mode (personal mode and enterprise mode ).
You cannot have more than one gateway running in the same mode on the same computer.

Hi BruceAnderson ,
You can click on the current gateway, then add data source under the same enterprise gateway (on premise data gateway), see more:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-data-sources#add-a-data-source.

BruceAndersonThanks for the response. That I don't think is what I need to do. What you suggest will support multiple data sources with one Power BI instance. WHat I need to solve is having two differen Power BI service instances (different domain in use from Office365), but the one gateway.
