Hi all,
I would like to establish a direct access between Power BI and SAP BW. Since our SAP/BI department is a nightmare, going through them would mean to get my hands on the connector sometime in 2024.
Does anyone here have access to the file and would be willing to share it with me?
Thanks and regards!
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous SAP BW connector you can get from microsoft website

Appreciate your Kudos, Press the thumbs up button!!👍

FYI - December and January Power BI Desktop versions have broken the SAP BW connectivity so you will need to go back to the November desktop version to get it work again (provided you get it working for first time, good luck btw!)
