Hi Caitlyn,
I can see you have the Azure Active Directory set up in the gateway. But I used normal on-premises AD.
Do I need to use Azure AD for the gateway?
Secondly, you use the powerbi user account to connect. does it have special permission? I used my credential and I have the right to view and add computers and users to AD.
Other than that, I followed the same steps.
Kind Regards
