Snowflake via ODBC: missing credentials

Hello!

 

I have a report that connects to Snowflake. When I configure it to use the dedicated Snowflake connector and publish, I am able to refresh via Power BI service fine after specifying OAuth2 in Data Source credentials without a need for a gateway:

 

 

However, I need to be able to execute a SQL query at import so I've instead used the ODBC connector:

 

 

 

Refresh works from PBI Desktop but not from PBI Service because of following error. Unfortunately I am unable to set the credentials to use because the option is greyed out. I don't expect to need a gateway because I was previously able to connect fine without one via the dedicated snowflake connector.

 

Please help.

 

Thanks!!

    Hi bp_developer ,

    If you use an ODBC connector, then on-premises data gateway is necessary.
