Install and set up the SAP Setup Assistant

As a Power Platform admin, you install, set up, and deploy the SAP Setup Assistant for your organization. This article covers the following steps:

Step 1: Create connections

Cloud flows need specific connection references to work correctly. Connection references are included in the solution, but connectors often need to be set up manually. You need to set up seven new connections for the SAP Setup Assistant app.

It's best to create the connections before you import the solution. If you create the connections during import, you have to jump between browser windows.

1. Go to Power Apps.

2. Select the target environment where you want to install the SAP Setup Assistant.

3. Go to Connections and select + New Connection to create the connections that are not already set up in your target environment:

   • Microsoft Dataverse connector
   • Office 365 Outlook
   • Office 365 Users connector
   • Power Apps for Makers connector
   • Power Automate Management
   • Power Platform for Admins connector
   • Power Query Dataflows connector
