PBI Service asks for gateway when refreshing Databricks dataset.

When refreshing a dataset with a Databricks source in the service, we get the error message below :

 

Processing error: There is no available gateway.
Cluster URI: WABI-WEST-EUROPE-E-PRIMARY-redirect.analysis.windows.net


How is it possible that an Azure/Databricks/Cloud source needs a Gateway?

The connection between Power BI desktop and Databricks is done via "Partner Connect" and refreshing in the desktop works fine.

 

(Gateway installation takes some time in my organisation, so that's no solution right now)

Hi @Artefact ,

When you publish a report to the Power BI service, you connect to Azure Databricks using a personal access token. In the Power BI service, you can also enable single sign on (SSO) so that users can access reports built using DirectQuery storage mode by passing their Microsoft Entra ID credentials to Azure Databricks.

 

For more details, you could read related document: Connect Power BI to Azure Databricks - Azure Databricks | Microsoft Learn

Hi @Artefact 

What do you mean by "Partner connect"? didn't use the native connector "Azure Databricks" ?

By the way, installing the Standard Power BI Gateway doesn't take more than 2 mins and another minute just to add it to the Tenant.
