I am having problems with my data refresh in the powerbI service. I have three different SQL Servers that are refreshing and all work accept one. One is giving me a ceretificate error. I looked on the actual SQL Server and the cert renewed recently so that should be an issue. If it is, how do i reset what cert PowerBI is looking at? I have tried to turn on encrypting in power bi desktop, which didn't work ... I tried turing on TCP/IP on the server, that didn't work ... so i am all out of ideas. Any help would be appreciated.
@Briggsy I would suggest taking a look within the gateway logs themselves. The messaging in those is usually much more enlightening to the actual cause of the error.
