We have moved the Data source to the New server and we need to republish all the reports to the Power BI service and Map the Data source to the Gateway.

We have more reports and we need to map all the reports and it is very time running task to add for all the reports again.

Request you to implement a way to map all the reports to the gateway in simple step.

Thank you

RE: Mapping the data source to the Gateway

Just like Microsoft SQL Server, There should be a way to Back-up and Restore on-prem Gateway servers + data connections, and optionally restore them into another Server, with the option to make them redundant for failover recovery. If the Gateway crashes catastrophically , users will loose all 100's or 1000's of connections that need to be entered manually into a new Gateway, which will cause a great loss of time and money for the enterprise.
