Hi,
I'm trying to create a dataflow by pulling entities from Azure SQL Database. I've created a new workspace, and tried to create a dataflow. I put my server information and database name, then it's asking for a gateway, which I don't have. I'm trying to connect to a cloud service. Why would I need an on-premises gateway to connect to a cloud service?? Data flow is keep throwing errors saying that I need a gateway?! It doesn't make any sense at all. I'd really appreciate if someone has any idea about this issue. What could be going on or why do I need a gateway to connect to Azure which is on CLOUD not on prem.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Turns out Power BI gives "This connection requires a gateway" error for anything. Our problem was Azure was not recognizing our credentials so we had to create a particular role just for Azure connection.
Hi @Anonymous ,
By my test, if we create the dataflow with Azure SQL Database, we don't need to configure the data gateway.
Do you connect with the datasource which is highlight?
