3416997 - Error "Couldn't refresh the data" appears when refreshing an import job consuming data from S/4HANA system in SAP Analytics Cloud.

Symptom

  • When refreshing an import job, or creating a new one, consuming data from S/4HANA system the following error message pops-up:

    "Couldn't refresh the data".

  • On the Data Timeline panel, it is possible to see the message:

    "The requested system is not allowed by the SAP Cloud Connector (SCC). Check the configuration on SCC and ensure access is granted to the system".

  • The same happens when creating a new model, but the error that pops up is:

    "<NAME>Query has failed to upload because of an error in the plugin service."

  • However, when creating a new model using the same query, but adding filters to it, the model can be successfully created.

Environment

    >>Note the error message that pops up: "<NAME>Query has failed to upload because of an error in the plugin service."

 

Cause

From the Payload trace (traffic_trace_<account id>_on_<landscapehost>.trc) it is possible to see that the request is being sent to the wrong host, which is not mapped as a virtual host in the Cloud Connector.

Resolution

  1. Use the same virtual and internal host on SAP Cloud Connector
  2. Use this host in the S/4HANA connection on SAP Analytics Cloud.
