Power BI：使用 Excel 文件和数据库作为数据源时的本地网关问题

Question

this is probably something simple that I am overlooking, but here's what I have going on:

I've built a dashboard that sources a few tables from my database. The report is also using an Excel file (which is stored on my local machine and our OnePoint Drive) for a couple other tables. We've set up the on-premise gateway so that the published reports can access the tables from the database. Through the Manage Gateways page, it shows online: Gateway - Online Status

Opening the report still shows errors and says there is no gateway connection. See here: No gateway connection

When I go to the dataset settings, it seems that the Excel file is what is causing the issue: Gateway setting issues

Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this? How do I make a connection to the Excel file that is on OneDrive and detach it from the gateway cluster that has been set up?

Answer 1

Looks like you're using a local file path. If it is in OneDrive, open the query and change the source to point directly at the cloud version. There are instructions here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/sharepoint-onedrive-files
