Cause

From the backend configuration for Live Data Connection, the cross-site cookies was not properly allowed.

Resolution

First, you must configure your SAP on-premise data source to issue cookies with the following attributes:

  • SameSite=None
  • Secure

This will ensure Chrome and other browsers allow cross-site access to your SAP on-premise data source cookies from SAP Analytics Cloud. Without these settings, user authentication to your live data connections will fail, and Story visualizations based on these connections will not render.

How to configure that can be found on: SameSite Cookie Configuration for Live Data Connections | SAP Help Portal

Second, on your browser cookies settings, check if it was confirmed that the back-end server (BW, SAP S/4HANA etc.) is allowed to access third party cookies.

In Chrome: Go to chrome://settings/content/cookies, and either 'Block third-party cookies' should be turned off, or you have to add the hostname of the back-end system to the 'Allow' section.
