Authorizations: Power BI with SAP Query

vpo · ‎10-02-2017

Dear Power BI Community,

we want to connect SAP Queries to our PowerBI with the BW Connector. So my main issue is - we need to have the same authorizations in Power BI, like when the SAP Query is executed in an SAP Tool (e.g. Business Object, BEx Analyser ect.). Is this possible? Or do we need to look for alternatives?

Any tips are highly appreciated!

I don't exactly know what authorizations is used when "SAP Query is executed in an SQP tool. AFAIK, in Power BI desktop, a fixed username/password are the only authorization approach.
