Power BI service connection to Azure MySQL

We created MySQL Database as data source using Azure PAAS service. In Power BI service, do I still need a gateway for connecting to MySQL Azure?

@wei,

Based on my test, when we need to refresh the dataset that connects to Azure database for MySQL in Power BI, gateway is required.
