Power BI API Issue with ARIS BPM Tool (405 Connection Error)

Hello - 

We trying to connect ARIS, a Business Process Management Tool by Software AG via PowerBI and extract cycle time attributes from our Process Models.  The goal is once we get this data, we'd like to create Visualizations and Charts for our Process Owners.  The objective is to give our Process Owners the ability to see their processes visually as well as the opportunity to improve their internal process as needed.    

 

We are running into an issue when trying to connect to the ARIS DB.  

 

The process we are following is:

 

1.  Using the Get Data/Web Feature in PowerBI to populate the URL for our ARIS Database

2.  Modified the SAG ARIS API Certificate with our Server Name and Tenant Information

3.  Upon entering this information, we are receiving the following error messages in PowerBI

 

Is there a Get API Request we should be using from PowerBI?  We are running into a "405" Connect Issue, see screenshot below.  Is there any other alternatives that we can use to Get the Data and pull the attributes of the business process model (average cycle time.)

 

 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

405 means "Method not allowed".  Looks like your ARIS BPM API wants you to talk to it in a different manner.  Refer to their documentation and check out their samples.
