All of the current Ideas that mention SAP BusinessObjects BI Universe integration are marked as completed as this feature was offered pre June/July release. This is nearly a critical requirement for adoption in my organization.

I had previously heard that this was removed due to licencing restrictions, can we get an official response on that? Is there any possibility of this being re-integrated?

RE: SAP BusinessObjects BI Universe

This is a pretty big deal as we are enhancing a Business Objects platform with Power Bi. It would be very nice to be able to capitalize on the work that has been done on this existing platform within the Power Bi offering.

We are in healthcare operations analytics and this could help us make a significant leap forward.

Licensing issues was mentioned, but in the same post, it redirected back here to make/vote it as a suggestion.

There is a good number of votes, can we at least get a more specific response to the licensing issue and if this is a non starter because of that, or if it is something in the works with SAP that may/may not come to fruition.

This represents the majority of the work our analyst do... connecting to a SAP BO universe for medical and cost data. Power BI loses all of its charm without this feature.
