On-Premise gateway username and password

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

Hi, 

 

I'm a bit new to this so bear with me.

I installed the on-premise gateway app on a remote desktop. My goal is to send files created in Power Automate to a local folder on the remote desktop. 

 

I created the connection in Power Automate but it asks me for a username and password.

 

1. I never filled in a username or password so i don't know what it is asking for, could anyone clarify?

2. The rootfolder is the folder i want to send the files to i assume, is this correct?

    Took me a while but i found it;

     

    1. The username is your computers Domain/user

    2. Rootfolder is indeed the folder you want data to be placed in

    @Daanm  Is the information I need, aside from my password, below? If so, can you let me know how to format the username and if I should use the same password I do to unlock my computer?

    Thanks in advance!
