On-premises Data Gateway the same for PowerBI as PowerApps?
I have installed a Data Gateway for PowerBI. Will this gateway work with PowerApps too? It doesn't seem to find the gateway, or I haven't seen how to add an existing one. Any pointers?
In the PowerBI documentation (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-gateway-onprem/), it is clearly calling out that PowerBI On-premises Data Gateway will work for Microsoft Flow, Logic Apps, and PowerApps services.
That said; Microsoft PowerApps documents that it has its own on-premises data gateways as well (https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/tutorials/gateway-reference/) which I have to admit it looks really similar if not the same!
One of the main differences I see is the number of data sources that the gateways can access to which I am not sure if it is a documentation error or if it really is the only difference.
