SAP BW Connection

Hi All,

 

I was able to connect to the the SAP BW server but could not see anything. Please see the screen shot below

 

I would like to know if this is an issue on SAP side or Power BI side. I used the SAP BW Business warehouse connector.

 

The first screen shot is

Hi @rampsaladi

Did you enable Allow External Access to this Query property on SAP side?

In order to consume the queries designed on Power BI, we need to enable Allow External Access to this Query property.

 

Please follow the following article to connect to and use SAP BW server with power bi desktop.
