SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Category: OData · 🏅 Official partner

You connect SAP Analytics Cloud to Yres through an OAuth client using the Client Credentials grant. Under the hood, Yres creates two linked services ({bronnaam}_HTTP and {bronnaam}_REST) and retrieves the data through your SAC tenant's data-export API. Official partner.

Expected input​

When adding the source, in addition to the standard source fields (see Requirements below) you fill in the following connection fields. The field labels match the input form exactly.

FieldDescription
UrlThe data-export endpoint of your SAC tenant, for example https://tenant-name.eu10.hcs.cloud.sap/api/v1/dataexport/.
Authentication urlThe OAuth token endpoint of your SAP identity provider, for example https://tenant-name.authentication.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/oauth/token.
Client IdThe OAuth Client ID of the OAuth client created in SAC.
Client SecretThe matching OAuth Client Secret.

Authentication: OAuth2 Client Credentials. Yres uses the Client Id + Client Secret to retrieve a token from the Authentication url and uses that token to reach the data-export endpoint.

Integration runtime: AutoResolveIntegrationRuntime (cloud). SAC is reachable over the internet, so a self-hosted integration runtime is not needed.

How Yres stores this

The values you enter are not retained by Yres but written as secrets to your environment's Azure Key Vault, under the names adf-{bronnaam}-URL, adf-{bronnaam}-clientId, adf-{bronnaam}-clientsecret and adf-{bronnaam}-AuthURL. The two linked services ({bronnaam}_HTTP and {bronnaam}_REST) themselves use authentication type Anonymous; the OAuth token is retrieved in the pipeline and the Key Vault reference to the client secret is filled in automatically.

Requirements​

  • An OAuth client in SAP Analytics Cloud with the Client Credentials grant (see Setup).
  • The Token URL (Authentication url) and the data-export URL of your tenant.
  • The Client ID and the Client Secret of that OAuth client.

Setup​

Create an OAuth client in SAP Analytics Cloud via System → Administration → App Integration:

  1. Go to System → Administration → App Integration → Add a New OAuth Client.
  2. Under Authorization Grant, choose Client Credentials.
  3. Save the client. SAC now shows the OAuth Client ID and its matching Secret — copy both.
  4. On the same App Integration page, note the Token URL (use it as the Authentication url in Yres).

Retrieving the data​

  • Url — the data-export endpoint of your tenant. Example: https://tenant-name.eu10.hcs.cloud.sap/api/v1/dataexport/. Replace tenant-name and the region (eu10) with those of your SAC environment.
  • Authentication url — the OAuth token endpoint. You find it under System → Administration → App Integration. Example: https://tenant-name.authentication.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/oauth/token.
  • Client Id + Client Secret — taken from the OAuth client you created in the Setup step (the Client Credentials grant). After saving, SAC shows the OAuth Client ID and the Secret.
