The mobile app can only connect to URLs that are trusted connections. This includes both intermediary URLs used to log on to the SAP Analytics Cloud system, or live data source connections consumed by stories viewed in the app. For example, if you are using a reverse proxy server to relay requests from the mobile app to SAP Analytics Cloud, and the connection does not satisfy certain requirements, errors may be displayed to the user. Use the information below to secure your connections for your particular app:
iOS
-
A trusted SSL certificate must be installed on the server (such as the reverse proxy server). Self-signed or untrusted SSL certificates are not supported.
This means that the server has secure server certificates from a Certificate Authority (CA), and the CA is trusted by iOS (for a list see: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204132). Possible error: An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made.
