Why each option
To connect Power BI to an on-premises SQL Server data warehouse and add new fields, an on-premises data gateway is required.
Azure Purview is a data governance solution for data discovery, cataloging, and lineage, not for connecting Power BI to an on-premises SQL Server.
A Site-to-Site VPN establishes network connectivity between an on-premises network and Azure, but a data gateway is still specifically needed for Power BI to access on-premises data sources.
An XMLA endpoint is used for advanced connectivity, management, and refreshing of Power BI Premium datasets, but it does not facilitate the initial connection to an on-premises SQL Server data source.
The on-premises data gateway acts as a bridge, providing secure data transfer between on-premises data sources like SQL Server and cloud services such as Power BI, enabling the dataset to access and incorporate new fields from the data warehouse.
