power bi gateway - recovery key testing - validation
- 6 years ago
It appears it is impossible to test a recovery key.
Therefore as suggested by v-lionel-msft i submitted this idea.

Hi nickyvv ,
Thanks for the link to the modules but this does not solve the quest for the testing of the current key of the current gateway.
I did find that adding members to the gateway is not supported by the modules (yet).
Hi KristofDM ,
Maybe you can do this.
Step1:
Set new recovery key
Step2:
Enter the old recovery key and the new recovery key ( The new recovery key must be the same as the old recovery key), if you can modify it successfully, it means your old recovery key is correct.
Best regards,
Lionel Chen

Hi v-lionel-msft, thanks for your reply,
We could but this renders the connections for 'flow -power- automate- logic- apps' useless and would thus require these users to re-enter all their cred's. so also not great solution. or wont it since its the same key... perhaps to be tested...
there seems to be no real solution without actually changing something to the service it seems. 😞
