    Hi there

    Yes you can restrict this by going into the Power Platform Admin Center

    https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/ext/DataGateways

    Then clicking on Data Gateways

    Then at the top click on Manage gateway installers

    Then on the right hand side you can toggle on the "Restrict users in your organization from installing gateways" add the users who you want to install and you are done

The new proper solution is to use the DataGateway PowerShell module and restrict Personal Gateway installation using the cmdlets:

Disable Personal Gateways for all users and only allow specific users
Set-DataGatewayTenantPolicy (DataGateway) | Microsoft Docs

Set-DataGatewayTenantPolicy -PersonalGatewayInstallPolicy Restricted

 

 

Enable specific users as installers for personal gateways (install Azure AD cmdlets)

Set-DataGatewayInstaller (DataGateway) | Microsoft Docs

$user1 = $(Get-AzADUser -ObjectId "[email protected] ").Id

$user2 = $(Get-AzADUser -ObjectId "[email protected] ").Id

Set-DataGatewayInstaller -PrincipalObjectIds $user1,$user2 -Operation Add -GatewayType Personal
