Hello all,
I am having some trouble with gateways, previously everything worked fine but I had to uninstall and reinstall my personal gateway when it unexpectedly quit working. My pbix files are being imported from OneDrive for Business and most of my data sources are coming from Oracle or an ODBC source (trying to make my dashboard as "live" as possible as most of my sources are updated every day).
My issue now is that my some of my excel files that are needed to build out my reports are causing my entire pbix files to not refresh online. Under data source credentials in settings, I get this error when I try to edit credentials "Failed to update data source credentials: We are unable to connect to the data source. Please ensure that data source is accessible.Show details"
These files are saved directly on my desktop so I'm not sure why it's not able to connect. Is there a possible work around to make things more reliable? I have tried saving these files to my OneDrive, but cannot import them to my PBIX files, I think because of admin restrictions on my computer. I guess the bottom line is what is the simplest and most reliable ways people have set up their dashboards and data files so that datasets can be updated on a regular basis? Hopefully this isn't too much of dramatic personal issue, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Evan
