Want a really quick and easy way to set up a server connection for someone using the SAS Mobile BI app?
E-mail a report to them.
Here's how it works:
The app seamlessly sets up the connection. The only thing the recipient needs to know is their username and password. Unless it's a Guest connection server. A Guest connection doesn't require a username and password.
You can email a report from SAS Visual Analytics and from SAS Mobile BI.

In SAS Visual Analytics Viewer (7.3):
In SAS Visual Analytics Designer (7.3):
Hi Karen, this way to send a new connection seems awesome. I tried it as soon as I read it, but when I tap on the report link, the link opens safari, not the app.
Any idea about it?
thanks a lot

Hi Grazia,
It sounds like you're using an Apple device. Please let me know the following information:
Thanks!

hi Karen
thanks for your fast reply!

Hi Grazia,
We have no known bugs in this feature. The team would like you to upgrade to iOS 11 and SAS Mobile BI 8.21.
The expected behavior is that the link will open in Safari, but then redirect and open the SAS Mobile BI app.
The team also asks whether the link was generated by SAS Visual Analytics.
