Business Analytics Administration : Getting Started with the Business Analytics Server : Start and Stop the Business Analytics Server : Startup Account for the Business Analytics Server With Business Analytics Add-On for SharePoint
Startup Account for the Business Analytics Server With Business Analytics Add-On for SharePoint
There is a known issue with authentication for SharePoint users working with Business Analytics Add-On for SharePoint when both the Business Analytics Server and SharePoint use the same LDAP Directory for authentication. When users work in Business Analytics Hub to register SharePoint lists, use SharePoint lists or searches in mashups or publish apps to SharePoint, the credentials for the user account that started Business Analytics Server is used initially for authentication and authorization rather than the credentials of the current user or the configured SharePoint connection.
To work around this issue, you must use a user account that has been defined specifically to start up the Business Analytics Server in this context. You have two options to create this special startup account:
*Create a user account on the host for the Business Analytics Server that does not exist in your LDAP Directory.
*Add a user to your LDAP Directory but do not grant this user permissions to work in SharePoint.
