Hi @PRammai,

Firstly, please make sure that on-premises gateway service is running properly in Services.

Secondly, when you add the two data sources within registered on-premises gateway, please ensure that you enter the same connection strings of data sources as that you get in Power BI Desktop. You can go to File -> Options and settings ->Data source settings in Power BI Desktop to check all the data sources of the dataset.

Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
