User access from different domains to same resource through one On premise Gateway?

Hi, My client has installed an on premise gateway on his server. This gives his Power BI Services account access to on premise resource. However, I would like to access the same resources through the gateway, but from my own Power BI Services account - which is located in another domain. 

 

How can this be done?

 

Thanks

Just register a new data source for same resource using your service account credentails and you use that data source.

Hi, thanks for answering. I am not sure what you mean. Where do I register a new data source? And what service account?

Do you want to use existing gateway isnatlled by your client, if yes then add a new data source in that gateway using your own Power BI Services account

 

If you want to install new gateway then you can install and add new data source in new gateway using your own Power BI Services account

 

Domain will applicable while entering credentials so make sure enter the credenatils inclduing domain name (domain\user) if using windows authentication

Hi again

In order to be able to use the existing Gateway on my customers server, should any changes to the server be applied? Should my own domain account be added to their domain?

Can I have two gateways installed on the same server?

 

Your client can add a new data source to existing gateway and provide you user access to the data source

You can not install two gateways on same server.

In order for my client to provide user access to the data source, would he or she need  to add my email to their tennant/ domain? Some kind of thirdparty account or guest or something? Or would I be able to add my clients account to my Power BI Service and then use that clients credientials to log in the gateway?
