I developed a report that connects to an Excel file I stored in a SharePoint document library.
Some parameters that will help:
* Our SharePoint is on-prem.
* I am using an Enterprise Gateway on a server.
* There are other reports running sucessfully against Libraries on the same sharepoint instance.
* I have the excel data and other sharepoint data, populating different tables, in the same report.
The report works fine from my desktop, I can refresh the data all day. I uploaded it to power bi online and tried to update the gateway with the connection. I get an error the file cannot be found. I can take the URL and paste it in windows explorer and the file opens. (Yes, I did alter the sharepoint instance name to hide my company info)
Any suggestions?
