I am trying to set up DataGateway on PowerBi Service. I already have On-premise DataGateway(Personal Mode) Install on my laptop. There are two things I am confused on:
1) One of the dataset I had in my workspace, when I tried to create a schedule refresh, it shows the option of connect directly instead of letting me use a DataGateway, what does this mean?
2) I do see the choice of Personal Gateway when I set up schedule refresh with other datasets, but I dont see the any Gateway when I click into Setting > Manage Gateways. Why is the gateway I installed does not show up in here?
Thank you very much!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Connect Directly is used when your data sources are all cloud hosted within the Office 365 system. No need for a gateway because it can directly access the data.
