how to get IP address where the power BI get data

[Anonymous]

for security reason, the request for data source  is limited to a number of IP address, and power bi published  in the service uses data from that source, the power BI refreshs data via gateway, where can I get the IP address to ensure data refresh and data security？ Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous 

Yes, if you want to ensure the stability of the data obtained by Power BI, you only need to ensure that the server where your gateway is located is running normally. The server that deploys the gateway has certain requirements, you can refer to the link below.

Hi @Anonymous 

I don't quite understand that you said about get the IP address to ensure data refresh and data security.

There is no single IP address for Power BI. The azure services are running in a range of IP addresses, which by definition are dynamic and can change in time. You can get the current IP address range for the public cloud here - Azure IP Ranges and Service Tags – Public Cloud. For Power BI and Power Query it contains hundreds of address ranges. This file is updated weekly.

If you want to know what data sources are supported by Power BI, you can refer to this link below.

If power BI get data through gateway, so I guess just ensure the server that runs gateway is OK, is that correct?
