Symptom
- A live direct connection to on-premises HANA system has been created with a HANA Database technical user.
- However the technical user's credentials are not being recorded in the connection, and whenever a user accesses the story, there will be popup to request user credentials.
- How can we use this connection with a fixed technical user? As an example, when connecting to HANA Cloud system with live connection, the credentials are saved in the connection and the scenario using a technical user is perfectly met.
Environment
SAP Analytics Cloud(SAC) 2023.21.8
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a live direct connection to HANA on premise system, using a HANA technical user's credentials.
- Create a live data model based on the connection.
- See the popup to input user name and password. But for the live connection to HANA Cloud system, this is not needed.
Cause
- This is a by-design behavior.
- When creating live connection to HANA cloud system, the technical user's credentials will be saved along with the connection details.
- But live direct connection to HANA on premise is not designed in this way. User credentials won't be restored in connections. And manually input is necessary when using the connection.
Resolution
- This is a by-design behavior. It is necessary to provide a HANA database user manually whenever the connection is used.
