Gateway is online but in newly published report displays as unreachable

I am the tenant admin and have made no changes to gateways recently, and earlier today they were working without issue.

I just republished a new report to an existing workspace, and it was an update to an existing report that is also used in an App. As a best practice I always confirm the Semantic model settings are correct and scheduled refreshes are still happening after a republish - however that didn't go as planned. Our org has 3 Gateway clusters, one not in use at this time, one is used only for Power BI connections and the other for Power Platform (Apps, Automate, etc)
I confirmed in 'manage connections and gateways' that the expected Power BI gateway cluster is online but the Workspace cannot recognize it for some reason. Instead it is connecting me to the Gateway used for Power Apps and I cannot unselected the option in 'Maps to'. 

I don't manage the Power Apps gateway, only Power BI.

I'm not sure how to resolve this and need to deliver a report asap.


This image shows me verifying that my Gateway cluster is online, the connection to SQL database is connected to that Gateway and the connection is online. And the Semantic model settings showing that the expected Gateway is not reachable. 

Instead is shows the Gateway named uscl-pwrapp, which is the one I don't manage and cannot see as my admin role in our tenant.

Since it wanted to auto connect I did try but it failed immediately

Hey @JessieF ,

 

each database needs its own data gateway connection, and users (content creators who are publishing the report their reports to a workspace) who are using the data sources (the two data sources, namely the two SQL Server databases) have to be added to this data gateway connectios, at least as a user of the data gateway connection.

 

Make sure that both SQL Servers have a data gateway connection assigned to the gateway you are managing.

 

Hopefully, this helps to tackle the challenge you are facing.

 

Regards,

Tom

Exactly 3 minutes ago I realized that was my problem.  It's probably because it's 2am EST and I'm over worked and underslept and forgot that I used a different database for the extra content.  I very much appreciate your reply - this is the exact problem and I'm only disappointed in myself that I didn't catch this.


Best,
Jessie

Ha, at 2AM you should not be dissapointed in yourself.

 

Sleep well
