Optional Parameters not available in Gateway Data Source configuration

Hi,

 

I created a custom connector which has couple of required parameters as well as optional parameters. When I try to connect using the connector in Power BI, I can see all parameters -

But when I try to create a data source configuration in Power BI Service using gateway, I'm only able to see the required parameters. All the optional parameters are not available. Is there a way to enable optional parameters in Power BI Service?

hi @sbobba 

You need to add the datasource into gateway one by one manually in advance, and could not use Parameters in gateway management.
