SUP connection
Add a connection | sapbi://addconnection?ConnectionType=SUPConnection&Application_ID=MobiApp&Sec_Config=MobiSec&server_url=10.53.129.243&SUP _Port=5001&SUP_Farm_ID=0 |

Note: While modifying a connection normally you have to repeat each parameter twice - one with "Prev" and another with "New" suffix. However, in case of SUP connection that is not required. This is because you can have only one SUP connection.
