Hi EmilZPM,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum. After thoroughly reviewing the details you provided, here are a few troubleshooting steps to consider:
- Since Azure Blob Storage and Power BI semantic models are cloud-based, they should not require a gateway. Please ensure the cloud data sources are correctly configured and do not mistakenly require a gateway.
- Verify that Azure Blob Storage connections are using OAuth authentication. If the credentials have expired, re-enter them and try refreshing again.
- Identify any data sources that might require a gateway (such as an on-premises data source mistakenly included). If everything is cloud-based, republish the dataset to update its metadata in Power BI Service.
- If the dataset is locked into using an On-premises or VNet gateway, ensure your Personal Gateway is online and updated. If possible, switch to an On-premises Data Gateway (Standard Mode) instead of the Personal Gateway. If using a VNet Gateway, verify it has access to the required cloud services.
- Create a new Power BI file, connect only to Azure Blob Storage, and publish it. If the new dataset does not require a gateway, this suggests an issue with the original dataset’s metadata.
