Power BI report not refreshing: The on-premises data gateway's service account failed to impersonate

I have a report that was refreshing perfectly (was set for scheduled refresh in Power BI Service) until I started getting the following error EVEN WITH REFRESH NOW:

The on-premises data gateway's service account failed to impersonate the user.

 

My credentials seem to be alright; nothing has changed in the back end. Also, I have tried looking online to mitigate the issue but could not find any relevant solutions.

 

Please advise!!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

What is the version of your on-premises data gateway? Are you using the standard mode of gateway? Could you please check if the datasets in different workspace map to the same data source of gateway?
