Hi team,
I am trying to connect PBI to SAP BW: strictly followed MS/SAP links below, downloaded VER 3.1 instead of 3.0 connector as it is newer (I made sure my system is competible with 3.1). The installation was successful, however:
1) During installation, there was no prompt for "Optional setup steps" as MS link suggests (install to GAC), it was one-simple-click, then it's done
2) When I tried to connect to SAP BW, I received an error message as below, it seems PBI doesn't recognize VER 3.1
Could someone please point me to the right direction? Do I need to revert back to 3.0?
My system:
PBI Desktop: VER Nov. 2022
.NET: VER 4.8.0
Visual C++ R-Package: 2015 ~ 2022

Solved! Go to Solution.
Update: I was able to solve the issue by installing SAP Connector 3.0! Apparently 3.1 connector doesn't work, probably because it is too new (released in Oct. 2022).

Sir, good pm. Do you have a copy of the connector? Need to integrate with my Power Query Excel but don't have the rights to access the download link from SAP. Thanks in advance
Good morning, it can only be downloaded by "S" user of SAP, I had the same issue, eventually I asked our IT to make the download for me.
