Python Script - Data Gateway - No Option to Use Data Gateway for Data Source

Hi, I have a python script that PowerBI uses as a data source. According to what I've read it should be possible to refresh this data source in powerbi service using a personal gateway. 

 

So, I have a personal gateway installed.

Its working for a simple excel data import that I did as a test.

But for the data source with the python script i get the following error.

You can't schedule refresh for this dataset because the following data sources currently don't support refresh:
Data source for Query1

 

Updating the data source in PowerBI Desktop works fine.

The script basically does the following: Python(Requests) Scrape Website -> Pandas DataFrame(s) Import PowerBI

 

Any ideas how I could fix this?

I managed to get it fixed, the simplest things sometimes. Needed to press the discover data source
