Hello,
I have two gateway connections set up to MS SQL Servers. Both are running fine and refresh on the scheduled intervals.
I discovered after the connections were created that the SQL Views that the gateway brings to me for BI did not have some key fields. The dba has added the fields to the views and confirmed that they are there on his side. When a refresh occurs via schedule or via refresh now, the fields that were added to the views do not appear in my datasets.
A great deal of work has been done with these datasets already. Do I need to tear down the existing gateway connections and create new ones? If I do and the view names remain the same, will I lose all the work that I have already done? I'm talking about days of work that I would really prefer not to have to create again.
Here's an example. A view contains two tables each with 24 columns of data and the gateway provides connectivity and access to the information. The tables show up independently as expected in the dataset in PowerBI Service and of course in PowerBI desktop since the implementation of the ability to connect to gateway datasets directly. The dba adds a column of data to each table in the view. He sees the column when he looks at the view in SQL. The gateway connection refreshes on schedule and the data in the existing rows and columns is updated, however the columns that were added to the view that the gateway uses do not show up in PowerBI dataset.
What am I missing?
Help will be sincerely appreciated.
