GA of Kerberos based Single Sign-On (SSO) for SAP BW Message Server and Oracle
You have been able to use Single Sign-On, leveraging Kerberos, when connecting to some data sources including SAP BW Application Server in DirectQuery mode from Power BI. You can now also connect to SAP BW Message server using Single Sign-On leveraging Kerberos.
Once you install the latest gateway, browse to the manage gateways page. Select the intended gateway and click on “Add data source”. When you select SAP BW Message Server data source type, you should see the SSO for Kerberos option(highlighted below) now.
Similarly we have also enabled SSO leveraging Kerberos for Oracle also.
December version of the mashup engine
This month’s Gateway update also includes an updated version of the Mashup Engine, which will match the one released as part of the Power BI Desktop December update This will ensure that the reports that you publish to the Power BI Service and refresh via the Gateway will go through the same query execution logic/runtime as in the latest Power BI Desktop version.
Please continue to send us feedback for what new capabilities you’d like to see in the future.
