Download On Premise Data Gateway Personal Mode

We've split the on-premises data gateway docs into content that's specific to Power BI and general content that applies to all services that the gateway supports. You're currently in the Power BI content. To provide feedback on this article, or the overall gateway docs experience, scroll to the bottom of the article.

The on-premises data gateway (personal mode) is a version of the on-premises data gateway that works only with Power BI. You can use a personal gateway to install a gateway on your own computer and get access to on-premises data.

Each Power BI user can have only one personal mode gateway running. If the same user installs another personal mode gateway, even on a different computer, the most recent installation replaces the existing previous installation.

Answer: No. The on-premises data gateway (personal mode) can run only as an application. To run a gateway as a service or in admin mode, use the on-premises data gateway, which used to be called the Enterprise gateway.

Answer: Many situations can trigger a request for credentials. The most common scenario is that you reinstalled the on-premises data gateway (personal mode) on a different machine than your original Power BI personal gateway. There could also be an issue in the data source, or Power BI failed to make a test connection, or a timeout or system error occurred.

To update your credentials in the Power BI service, select the gear icon in the header and then choose Settings. On the Semantic models tab, select the dataset, and then choose Data source credentials.

If you want to share a reports then you can still do it but if you want to create a multi user work environment then you need the on-premises gateway. Also the personal gateway doesn-t work with direct query and live connections

Import data has up to 8 schedule refreshes in a day and the best thing I think it has, is that you won't compromise the database performance because it will be a complete model in microsoft ram performance. It will only query sql server the times you schedule it.

After that you have the gateways. I would recommend on premise data gateway with import data. This runs a windows service. The personal data gateway is an app for one person and not a service. The best for production is NOT to use personal way.

The old personal gateway was working perfectly, but the Power BI web send me a message to update to the new On-premises data gateway (personal mode), but ir does not works. The strange fact is that I tryed to install On-premises data gateway (enterprise mode) and it works, the only one that does not works is the personal mode. The organization that I work uses proxy, so using the old personal or the new on-premises enterprise I have to configure the service "Log On As" to use my AD user, but new personal mode does not have a service. So how can I fix my problem?

The gateway is configured to use the default proxy settings, however many organizations only proxy port 80 and 443. Since Service Bus uses different ports by default, start by forcing Service Bus to use port 80 or 443. Keep in mind the on-premises data gateway (personal mode) is typically installed under "%localappdata%\Microsoft\On-premises data gateway (personal mode)".

After enabling changing the configuration file, you will need to kill the on-premises data gateway (personal mode) process (Microsoft.PowerBI.DataMovement.PersonalGateway.exe) and relaunch the configurator.

Title. Basically I installed it for a moment for a collage project but then I realised I don't even need it. Please bear in mind I don't actually even know what the gateway is and what is it used for. I installed it on my PC alongside the same thing but in standard mode, not personal. The standard one I could install and uninstall with no problems, but I can't uninstall personal one. This is the message i get:

My experiences with the previous gateway were flawless, but the new version is giving me loads of problems and I want to see if anyone else is experiencing this. My use is limited to the On-Prem personal mode.

With the new gateway installed I deleted the old gateway connection in Power BI Service and added the new one. I updated the credentials on my dataset and the files have refreshed successfully! Then I go home and come back the next day to find that using the same gateway, same files, same credentials, it no longer refreshes - despite being connected and working the day before.

It's extraordinarily frustrating because I'm stuck refreshing and publishing from the .PBIX files. I can't figure out where I'm going wrong. I've been doing this process for years now without much issue. Has anyone else experienced this in the last few days or found a work around? (I am using the personal gateway as a short-term solution while the organization works towards full integration of the enterprise gateway).

I installed the latest On-premises data gateway (personal mode) today and a SQL server database I had been successfully connecting to with the previous version (Power BI gateway - personal) is no longer working. Specifically, I cannot connect to the server's database using the "Basic" login mode. This has worked flawlessly since the first versions of the personal DMG, so something has clearly been broken. Also, I am able to connect to other data sources (databases) in the same server using Windows authentication mode. So, the problem is with "Basic" login mode.

I reverted back to the previous version of the gateway provided by Dimah late yesterday afternoon. I was able to get the SQL data source to take the credentials in Basic mode and all of the reports using that data source successfully refreshed last night.

I have been working with on this issue. I am able to connect to other SQL databases with the latest PGW using Windows mode. I think the problem may have something to do with the fact that the SQL db I am connecting to that fails with Basic mode authentication does not support encryption. I get the following message when first connecting to this source using Power BI desktop using Basic authentication.

I have been working with a Microsoft engineer on this problem and the root cause appears to be that the SQL Server database name is somehow being used by the Power BI service as lower case. The database name in our SQL 2008 server is case sensitive and contains upper case letters, so the connection fails when the Power BI service uses lower case with the latest version of the personal gateway. As I noted in previous posts, this problem did not happen with the previous version of the personal gateway or On-prem gateway.

I believe this issues needs to remain an open ticket for Microsoft to fix. It's not reasonable to ask users to change their working datasets just because the personal gateway or On-prem gateway has been changed. The Power BI team has been regularly delivering great features and doing a great job of supporting us users. The responsivness from Microsoft on this issue was excellent and Power BI is one of the best products Microsoft has released in years. Please keep us happy and get this problem fixed ASAP.

Thanks for sharing your question and the root cause for this problem. According to your response, we know that the SQL Server database name is somehow being used by the Power BI service as lower case with the latest version of the personal gateway, issue occurs when the database name is set to case sensitive. This will be a great notice to other users so that they can take care of this behavior when using the latest gateway. Besides, as you have submitted this issue to Microsoft, our product team will consider fixing it in later release. Appreciate for your patience.

I have this data source in an On-premise gateway and it is working there. I would prefer to only have the On-premise gateway, but it won't work with Oauth2 data sources (e.g. O365 Project Online, SP, etc.), so I have to have the personal gateway too.

Gateway is required- If the data source is located on-premises, then you need a gateway. Means, any local files, whether they are on a virtual machine or your local desktop, will require a data gateway.

1. You can find the on-premise data gateway (personal mode) configuration file Microsoft.PowerBI.DataMovement.PersonalGateway.exe.config here: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\On-premises data gateway (personal mode).

2. The new personal gateway version named as on-premise data gateway (personal mode) which you run doesn't run as a separate Windows service. After you change settings in configuration file, you need to kill the on-premises data gateway (personal mode) process (Microsoft.PowerBI.DataMovement.PersonalGateway.exe) and relaunch the on-premise data gateway (personal mode).

In Power BI, a gateway is a software component that enables secure and seamless data connectivity between Power BI and on-premises data sources. A gateway acts as a bridge between the cloud-based Power BI service and on-premises data sources, allowing you to use Power BI to access and visualize data that is stored on-premises. We may need to use a gateway in Power BI if we want to access on-premises data sources from Power BI or if we want to use Power BI to create live connections to on-premises data sources. Some common scenarios where a gateway may be required include: ff782bc1db
