Hi,

Looking to set up Azure Purview for organizational governance. I need to know whether I can use BW/4HANA version 2 as a source within Azure Purview?

I cannot see it in the list of data sources in the catalogue...

Please let me know if it is possible ot scan and bring in data from this source system?

    @Isabelle Thompson - Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A paltform.

    Note: Azure Data Catalog accounts can no longer be created.

    For data catalog features, please use the Microsoft Purview service, which offers unified data governance for your entire data estate.

    Unfortunately, BW/4HANA version 2 data source is not supported in Microsoft Purview.

    For more details, refer to Supported data sources and file types.

    Appreciate if you could share the feedback on our feedback channel. Which would be open for the user community to upvote & comment on. This allows our product teams to effectively prioritize your request against our existing feature backlog and gives insight into the potential impact of implementing the suggested feature.

    However, you can still use Azure Purview to manage metadata for your BW/4HANA version 2 data sources by creating a custom connector.

    For more details, refer to Purview Custom Connector Solution Accelerator and Microsoft Purview Custom Types Tool.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
