Gateway stops working at night

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 35

I have on-prem gateway linked to a workflow in Power Automate (upload data on network through gateway to OneDrive).   The flow stops working in the evening and starts up again in the morning.  The gateway is installed on my laptop, and I imagine it's stopping when my laptop enters sleep mode. 

 

 I assume changing the sleep settings will remedy this, but I wanted to see if anyone else has run into this.

    That's why Microsoft recommends running gateways on server class machines that aren't shut down or allowed to go to sleep at night.  The gateway will definitely stop working if the laptop goes to sleep.  You can adjust the power settings to prevent it from sleeping or hibernating.

    Thanks!  I'll eventually fix this by installing it on multiple servers and setting up a cluster, but preventing sleep works for today.

    Can you advise how you were able to do this?
