Data extraction from SAP S/4 HANA Public Cloud

chinian811 — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 09:02:12 GMT

Hello everyone. I am new to the forum. The data of my organization resides in SAP S/4 HANA (Public Cloud version) and we would like to extract the data into Fabric for analytics and reporting.

Does anyone have experience in this?

Does the built-in SAP HANA connector support the S/4 HANA Public Cloud version?

I have seen many discussion on importing data from SAP, but none mentioned about the Public Cloud version explicitly.

Thanks in advance!

Hello chinian811

No, unfortunately you cannot use the Fabric “SAP HANA database” connector directly against SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud.

You can use:

OData APIs / CDS Views exposed via communication arrangements in S/4HANA Public Cloud, then ingest with Fabric (Dataflows Gen2 / Pipelines) or Power BI.
SAP Datasphere → Fabric via Microsoft’s Mirroring/Copy Job integrations, or via partner tools that replicate SAP data into OneLake with business context preserved. Please note this is a Preview feature!

Hope this helps - please appreciate giving a Kudos or accepting as a Solution!

Hi chinian811,

Thank you deborshi_nag for your response to the query.

Along with the information already provided, here are a few key practical points you may want to mention to the customer:

Authentication & security: S/4HANA Public Cloud requires API-based access, so you’ll need to coordinate with your SAP admin to set up Communication Users, Communication Systems, and Communication Arrangements. Only approved APIs and CDS views are accessible.

Data scope: Not all tables or fields are available in the Public Cloud. Reporting is typically based on released CDS views, which may need to be checked to ensure they meet specific requirements.

Performance & data volume: OData extraction works best for incremental or specific datasets and isn’t intended for large-scale replication. For high volumes, consider Datasphere or certified SAP partners.

Change data capture (CDC): OData APIs don’t offer native CDC. Incremental updates rely on delta-enabled CDS views or timestamp filters.

Licensing & roadmap: Some integrations, like SAP Datasphere to Fabric, may depend on license or preview status, so it’s important to confirm availability and SLAs before using in production.

Thank you.

Hi chinian811,

In addition to the OData APIs and Datasphere options already mentioned, another approach to consider — especially for modular and event-driven integration — is using SAP Event Mesh with Azure Event Grid or Azure Logic Apps.

Event-Driven Integration:

If your S/4HANA Public Cloud tenant is configured with Event Mesh, it can emit business events (e.g., SalesOrder.Created, BusinessPartner.Changed, etc.). These can be routed to Azure Event Grid, triggering downstream workflows in Azure Data Factory, Logic Apps, or Fabric Pipelines.

This pattern is useful for:

Near real-time integration
Lightweight processing of specific business events
Reducing the need to pull full datasets periodically

Fabric can then use event-driven triggers to ingest the data or fetch details via OData APIs just-in-time.

Note: This requires coordination with your SAP BTP admin and setup of communication scenarios that enable outbound events from S/4HANA Public Cloud.
