Dear support,

we have a SAP setup which does not support Kerberos.

Our SAP experts told us it requires another SAP license to enable Kerberos Authentication.


it would be great to have Power BI support for Basic Authentication, using username and password, via proprietary SAP encryption protocol SNC. Currently, basic authentication only goes via unencrypted channel.

the table in the previous link stated basic via SNC is N/A.


thanks a lot

Antonio
