Live Data Restrictions for Search to Insight

The following restrictions apply when you run Search to Insight on live SAP HANA, SAP S/4HANA, SAP Universe, and SAP BW data models.

Data Access

  • The available indexed metadata (dimension and measure names, and dimension members) for all users is determined by the data access security of the user who indexed the model.
  • Visualizations based on indexed data will respect individual user access rights.

Metadata

  • You can now index live models up to a 5 million member capacity.
    Note
    Tenant capacity for all indexed models is 500 million members.

BW Models

  • Indexing is based on the flat representation of data. Index results do not account for hierarchies.
  • Models containing two-structure dimensions are not supported.

Variables

After indexing a model containing variables, the query interpretation will be based on those variables. The variable values cannot be modified when using Search to Insight. For example, a dynamic date variable will effectively be static as any visualizations rendered will be using the indexed variable values.
