    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
