Connecting to SAPBusinessObjectsBI

To connect to your SAP BusinessObjects BI instance, you must set the following:

• Url: The SAP BusinessObjects BI REST API URL. To discover this:
  1. Log into the Central Management Console.
  2. Choose Applications from the combo box.
  3. Select RESTful Web Service. The Central Management Console displays the access URL, which is http://{Server-Name}:6405/biprws by default.

• AuthScheme: Set this to the type of authentication to use when connecting to SAP BusinessObjects BI.

Basic

To connect to SAP BusinessObjects BI using Basic authentication, set the AuthScheme to Basic, and set these properties:

• User: The username of your instance.
• Password: The password of your instance.

CyberArk

To connect to CyberArk, set the AuthScheme to CyberArk, and set these properties:

• User: The CyberArk login name (user@domain).
• Password: The CyberArk user's password.
• SSOLoginURL: The app's single sign on URL.
• SSOExchangeUrl: The url used for the exchange of the SAML token for SAP BusinessObjects BI credentials.

If you have configured MFA, you must use combinations of SSOProperties to authenticate using CyberArk. Set any of the following, as applicable:

• MFAType: If you have configured MFA, set this to the name of the mechanism that should be selected during authentication.
• MFAPassCode: If you have configured MFA, set this to a valid answer for the selected mechanism.
  If you set this to an empty or an invalid value, the component initiates the out-of-band mechanism. The component polls the API until the challenge is completed through user interaction before deciding on closing the connection.
• MFATimeout: If you have configured MFA, set this to the number of seconds the component should continue polling the API until the challenge is completed through user interaction. By default, the component polls the API for 60 seconds before closing the connection.
  

Example connection string:

AuthScheme=CyberArk;SSOLoginURL='https://abc1234.id.cyberark.cloud/run?appkey=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000&customerId=ABC1234';User=cyberarkUserName;Password=cyberarkPassword;SSOExchangeUrl=http://myserver:8080/biprws/saml/SSO;
