Power BI Data Source Error

Hello! I am not the owner of the On-Premises data gateway and it is in the cloud. Currently all of the reports which  are owned by me are failing to refresh with the following error message "Cannot be added to gateway".  When I go to manage gateways and verify the status of the Data Sources it states it is "Online".

Assuming I need to reestablished connect to Data Source "Power BI"  in our gateway cluster however it is not available. It only shows "Power BI Connector for TIBCO(R) Data Virtualization" as an option. How do I connect to "Power BI" if it is not listed in the dropdown? Or am I going about this the wrong way?

A new cluster was created and gateway reset then it allowed me to establish the connection to Power BI Dataflows as a Datasource.

@mbusse4651  - Can you check if the below option is seletced in the on-prem gateway cluster settings? If not, select this option and try.  Let me know if this works.

Thank you very much !

Yes all three boxes are checked. I tried to uncheck and check several ways and yet nothing. I had also removed myself from the cluster and was added back in and yet still nothing.
