So for fun, I thought I would try this using Safari – right now Lumira Edge is not supported with Mobile BI.
I get my SAP Lumira Edge link and enter that on Safari on my iPad2:
Figure 1
I see message that my browser may not be supported and optimized; I haven’t checked the Product Availability Matrix yet – so I forge on ahead.
Figure 2
I’m logged on but can I view a story?
Figure 3
As Figure 3 shows, I can successfully see the Lumira Story on Lumira Edge on the iPad, even if it may not be officially supported (I haven’t checked)
Figure 4
Figure 4 shows an SAP-supplied sample file, one that can be viewed on Lumira Edge on the iPad. I click the link “click to explore”:
Figure 5
Figure 5 shows the results of filtering on the Lumira Edge story on the iPad – no issues so far.
Figure 6
Figure 6 shows the possibility of creating a new story on the iPad using Lumira Edge.
But what about Mobile BI? Mobile BI brings a consistent interface to your BI front-end tools on the mobile device.
So I tried similar visualizations using Lumira Cloud on Mobile BI:
Figure 7
You can see the top menu in Figure 7 is coming from the Mobile BI app, allowing the end user to annotate the visualization.
Figure 8
Figure 8 shows an annotation on the iPad.

Hi Tammy,
are you actually saying that we can acces Lumira Team Server from an ipad?
Thanks,
René
Rene – I just used the URL – I didn’t go through Mobile BI
Using the URL should work on the iPad
Hi Tammy,
URL link does not work from my IPAD … did you apply any specific settings on your ipad to connect to the URL?
Thanks,
René
No, I didn’t apply any specific settings. Please note this was an early version of Team Server and I was using a trial license; I don’t have a Team Server where I could try this now.
