GatewayId in dataset does not match the id of the gateway

[Anonymous]

Hello,

In one of our projects we use the power bi rest api's to downlaod information from our power bi tenant. We have noticed that the gatewayId in the following REST API does not match up with the id's of any of our gateways. 

In power bi service the dataset is linked to the gateway, however when i query the REST API the value in "gatewayId" does not match up with Id of the gateway. Also within a dataset if one of the sources is not attached to a gateway for eg. a website that does not need the gateway there is always a gatewayId value assigned to this datasource.

Any reason why these id's do not match ?

Hi dears 

Same issue  on my  side

Semantic  model not linked  a gateway  datasource on Service  ( Model setup) , but potential mapping is offered

BUT

a strange gateway id  can be seen on APIs (json result) :  model sources  & scanner APIs

Microsoft  any feedbacks  for FIX

  please ?  

My manager  asked me to show  a  semantic models LIST  when really linked a gateway

Hi @Anonymous ,

did you ever get an answer to this?

I'm having the same issue - dataset datasources not using a gateway are returning a gatewayid via the api...

Thanks

Hello Liang,

What exactly do you want to see in the screenshots ? 

The problem is that this REST API GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/datasets/{datasetId}/datasources returns a value in the field gatewayid even if the data source is not added to a gateway. I think this scenario you can test yourself without a screenshot from me.

You could create a report with two sources, one that needs to be accessed via a gateway and another source like sharepoint or another cloud source that does not need a gateway, after you have published this report to power bi service and then you execute the rest api mentioned above, then you will see the issue described by me.

Warm Regards,

Hi @Anonymous ,

Could you add screenshots of your question? So that I can do more tests
