Hi @LindaMonincxEDG ,

We don’t have requirements that their versions must match or couldn’t be higher that another one. But there is one thing you need to know is that Power BI Desktop and On-premises data gateway are normally updated monthly. And we would always suggest you upgrading them to the latest versions as some fixes or changes will be included in the latest versions and some issues can be resolved in the newly one.
