SAP BusinessObjects
Add SAP BusinessObjects to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed a SAP BusinessObjects integration so your customers can pull their own report output and universe metadata into your product instead of exporting it by hand, with governed agent access to the same results. Every deployment has its own universes and report structures, so mapping is configuration per customer rather than a code change and a release on your side. fastn handles per-tenant credentials, pagination, and throttling so a large read does not exhaust an allowance.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers connect their own BusinessObjects deployment and list the reports and folders they can access.
Read report results into your product so users work from current output instead of a spreadsheet export.
Read universe and object metadata so your product maps to each customer's own data model as configuration.
Trigger your product when a scheduled job completes so downstream steps use fresh report data.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reads a report's latest output before answering a question about the customer's own numbers.
An agent runs a scheduled report within read-only permissions and summarises the result.
An agent reacts to a failed scheduled job and reports which report and instance failed.
Example prompt
List scheduled report jobs that failed in the last day and show the report and owner for each.
Set up SAP BusinessObjects in 4 steps
- 01Open the SAP BusinessObjects connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their own BusinessObjects deployment with least-privilege credentials.
- 03Map the reports, universes, and result fields your product uses, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the SAP BusinessObjects integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship an SAP BusinessObjects integration without building it. Your customers connect their own SAP BusinessObjects account inside your product and work their records, datasets and fields there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: schemas differ per customer and change without notice, and volumes can be large. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so an SAP BusinessObjects update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed SAP BusinessObjects connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you read and write your customers' data where it already lives without wiring it twice.

SAP BusinessObjects integration FAQ
How do I add an SAP BusinessObjects integration to my product?
Enable the SAP BusinessObjects connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own SAP BusinessObjects account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no SAP BusinessObjects client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own SAP BusinessObjects account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own SAP BusinessObjects account and only ever sees their own records, datasets and fields. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this SAP BusinessObjects integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reads a report's latest output before answering a question about the customer's own numbers.
Who maintains the SAP BusinessObjects integration?
fastn does. When SAP BusinessObjects changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Does the SAP BusinessObjects integration adapt when a customer's schema changes?
Schema and field mapping is configuration per customer, so a change on their side is a mapping update rather than a code change and a release on yours.
How are large SAP BusinessObjects reads handled?
Pagination and throttling are handled for you, and initial backfills are rate-limited so a large import does not exhaust a customer's API allowance.
What can I build with the SAP BusinessObjects integration?
A common starting point: connect their own BusinessObjects deployment and list the reports and folders they can access. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the SAP BusinessObjects integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding SAP BusinessObjects does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
