Symptom
When working with SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) stories that are based on live data models from SAP Datasphere:
- The option to save prompt variants (sets of prompt values) is not available.
- After reopening the story, prompt values need to be re-entered manually.
Environment
- SAP Analytics Cloud.
- SAP Datasphere Live model
Reproducing the Issue
- Create or open an SAC story based on a live SAP Datasphere model.
- Apply prompt filters and enter desired prompt values.
- Attempt to save the current set of prompt values as a prompt variant.
>> Notice that the option to save or reuse prompt variants is not available.
Cause
- Saving prompt variants is not supported when using live connections from SAP Analytics Cloud to SAP Datasphere.
- This is a limitation on the Datasphere side.
