Hi all,

Currently we are not able to view Windows Authentication Type for SapBusinessWarehouse. It only shows Basic Authentication only.

Hi PowerBi team,

Any update regarding the above issue will be appreciated.

Issue: Windows Authentication Type not showing while using “SAP Business Warehouse” as a connection type in PowerBI report server.

Description: We are using PowerBI report server to connect to SAP Business Warehouse where we are not able to use SSO (Single Sign-on capability) using Windows Authentication mode.

We are seeing only Basic Authentication at the moment. Tried in old and latest Power BI report server version’s : Version 1.9.7675.15620 (October 2020) & Version 1.10.7737.32652 (January 2021) still no progress.

It is working fine while using PowerBI desktop in October 2020 and January 2021 latest versions but when we deploy the file in power bi report server it is not working.

Hi, RavinderSunkara

Since we don't have a suitable data source for testing, I find some information for you. It may be configured and have certain conditions before it can be used.

You can follow this document:

Set Credential & Connection Information for Report Data Sources - SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) | Microsoft Docs

Authentication with the Report Server - SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) | Microsoft Docs

Use Kerberos for single sign-on (SSO) to SAP BW using gx64krb5 - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Configure Windows Authentication on the Report Server - SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) | Microsoft Docs

Hope it helps.

Best Regards

Janey Guo
