Issue trying to connect a data source to gateway that works w/ Power BI Desktop

Hello,

 

I am trying to add a data source (a Microsoft SQL Server) to the Power BI Service.  The data source works fine w/ Power BI desktop, but when adding the data source on Power BI Service w/ the same details / credentials I get the below error.  It is the first datasource that I am trying to add to the gateway.  Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Ricardo

Note - this is solved.  The issue was that I had to put IP,PORT rather than IP:PORT as on Power BI Desktop.
