I don't believe you'll be able to setup and use an ODBC connection in Power BI Service. 

 

The gateway is required in general for an R script in Power Query, but it sounds like you have this RODBC connection setup on an R Visual. That wouldn't need a gateway, but again, I don't believe you'll be able to configure ODBC since you don't have access to configure anything in the Service.

Thanks Delsdersveld. I thinkg I should test running the dashboard after installing Gateway. I will get back to you with my findings.

    Hi Delsdersveld,

     

    When I go to gateway connection tab it says " You don't need gateway for this dataset, because all of its data sources is in the cloud".

     

    What do you suggest? Do I still download gateway? I am not sure if it work.

     

    Regards,
