newManageGatewaysUI false by default

For some reason my gateway management now goes thru a new "preview" U/I that is titled with Data (preview).

 

Based on a bit of usage, I can tell this "preview" screen has not made it thru QA yet.  It is really hard to use, especially when one wants to manage a selected list of data sources (the ones that I actually have rights to manage).

 

Is there a way to opt out of the preview U/I by default?  I see that others have posted an argument (newManageGatewaysUI=false) but I'm hoping it won't be necessary to type this all the time. 

 

In fact, it would be great if I could opt out of all "preview" features by default, until they go thru QA.  There are certain previews that I want to participate in, and others that I want to stay away from.  In general, I'm not a fan of the U/I in the Power BI service portal.  I find it subpar (hard to use, laggy, has bad visual cues, and frequently gets confused, requiring full reloads to reset the state of the page).

@v-luwang-msft  Thanks for the reply.

 

There appears to be no option in that screen for disabling the "new managed gateway" UI.

 

Based on your explanation, there should be a better way to disable this preview feature.  Notice that the portal describes the new UI as a preview:

2.Select the General tab. If previews exist, you'll either see an option for Preview features or you'll see a preview feature listed on the left. In this example, there is a preview listed for ArcGIS Maps.
