Security Upgrade affecting Users with Custom SAML Identity Provider

Dear user of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud,

On November 30th 2021 we upgrade parts of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud security.

Caution: If you do not implement this change before November 30th, 2021, you will not be able to log in anymore to your SAP Data Warehouse Cloud tenant. Therefore, it is important to follow the instructions prior to the security change deployment on November 30th, 2021.

Who is affected?

This change will affect customers who use a custom SAML Identity Provider.

What needs to be changed?

To be able to log in to your SAP Data Warehouse Cloud tenant, you’ll need to update configuration properties as described in Enabling a Custom SAML Identify Provider, step 7, ensuring that the “Groups” attribute is set to “sac”, also in case of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. We’re keen to hear your feedback and hope that you continue enjoying SAP Data Warehouse Cloud.

Note: In case you use a Azure AD please check this help
