Service Requires Local Gateway Despite No Local Sources

Hi All,

 

I uploaded a report to power bi service however it won't allow me to set up a scheduled refresh and says that I require a local personal gateway despite not haveing any local data sources. The sources I'm using are: Dataverse, From Web (using an anonymous connection), and a manual data entry table. 

 

Do you helpful folk know what could be causing this issue?

 

Thanks all.

It was due to an issue when adding web data sources as outlined in this article: Power BI: Avoiding personal gateway for web data sources (brunner.bi)

Hi @add ,

 

Please provide a detailed error message, (the original error message and without your description)
Have you tried to configure gateways and add credentials for each data source?
If all are non-local data gateways, it is not possible to use the gateway. If there is a mix of cloud and local data sources, you need to configure the data sources.

 

Best regards.
