BO Cloud Live data connection to HCP

[former_member239044]

Hello experts,

On Businessobjects cloud I wanted to create a Live data connection to HCP with credentials (simple URLs).

So I followed this link to do it : https://cp.hana.ondemand.com/dps/d/preview/1949b084ea3343df9e83923e906b7a03/release/en-US/frameset.h...

I checked the prerequisites (example BO cloud version is 2016.19) and go through the procedure.

But on step 3 I can't put the connection type to SAP HANA Cloud Platform. I have only "Path" connection type. (We use this connection type to connect an on-premise HANA system with a webdispatcher).

Do you know if there are other steps to do in order to get this connection type available ?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Timothée

Hi Timothée,

Please wait for the new "friendly URL" to be enabled in your system to use the SAP HANA Cloud Platform connection type.

Hi John,

Do you know when this "friendly URL" will be enable ?

Where can we get this information ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Timothée,

Check with your tenant admin. They should have received an email with this information.

Did you read this already:
