Any customers connecting to SAP databases?

Question

Hi All,

I have a customer interested in purchasing JMP and are curious about using it to access their data on their SAP database. I know that there are SAP HANA and SAP ODBC drivers are available, but curious to see if anyone has any practical experience with customers setting up connections/database queries?

Cheers,

Ben

Yes, HTTP Request () works in desktop JMP as well.

@Daniel_Valente the customer is just looking for connecting JMP at a user level to bring in data individually vs. JMP Live at this point (hopefully in the future) - I'm assuming the same process of a HTTP Request can be used for standard JMP?

With a robust API (I am assuming this customer is using HANA), they should be able to use HTTP Request (); to build an interface to their data and subsequently refresh it on JMP Live:

Have they tried that?
