Power BI Service Connectivity
Hello, I am currently working on a BI project, particularly with Power BI. I want to connect my dataset located in the power bi service to a local database located on a server inaccessible except by VPN. I really need help with this. If you have any possible solutions to provide me with, that would be really appreciated.
Thank you so much

Hi. That will only work with an OnPremise data gateway installed on a VM that has de VPN connected to get the data in order to work as bridge between Power Bi Service and your data. The VPN will force that unless it's an azure vnet or something like that.
You can check any gateway tutorial in order to install the client and configure the sources at PBI Service like this one: https://blog.ladataweb.com.ar/post/189013278236/powerbigateway-configurar-una-actualización
I hope that make sense
