Gateway status shows as online and connection shows as sucessful.  

I have used the same server name and database name for both power bi desktop and power bi gatway connectionI have removed all data sources from the gatway and readded but didn't work.

Any suggestions ?

 

Thanks & Regards

I have found out the issue. There were two data sources in my dataset. One onpremise sql server and other one is excel file stored in one drive. 

In Gateway Cluster Settings I have not ticked "Allow user's cloud data sources to refresh thorufh this gatway cluster" option. After ticked it and saved it. I was able to setup the gatway connection.
