Unsupported Features with SAP Datasphere Live Connections in SAP Analytics Cloud

Hello Cloud folks,

I would like to share some of the information that i searched for..

I faced lot of question after implementing SAC Stories on Live connection and this article helps to them.

when working with an SAC live connection to SAP Datasphere, you experience certain product limitations in SAC

In general, any SAP Datasphere system can be connected to any SAC system via the SAP Datasphere live connection in SAC.
Live connections between SAC and SAP Datasphere can be established across tenants . When using the SAC

– Datasphere live connection, We can build SAC stories or analytical applications that, at the same time, use data from a SAP
Datasphere space, multiple SAP Datasphere spaces, multiple SAP Datasphere spaces in multiple SAP Dataspheres as well as
any additional data sources that you have connected to SAC

When using the SAC – Datasphere live connection, SAC currently has the following product limitations:
