2012580 - The SAML Configuration tab does not display within the HANA XS Administration Tool.

Symptom

The SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) Configuration tab does not display within the HANA XS (Extended Application Services) Engine Administration Tool despite the user being assigned the requisite sap.hana.xs.admin.roles::SAMLAdministrator and sap.hana.xs.admin.roles::SAMLViewer roles.

Environment

SAP HANA Platform Edition 1.0

Cause

Only the provided SYSTEM user, when granted the requisite roles within the database, is able to see the SAML configuration table in the HANA XS Administration Tool.

Resolution

1. Grant the SYSTEM user the sap.hana.xs.admin.roles::SAMLAdministrator and sap.hana.xs.admin.roles::SAMLViewer roles.
2. Logon to the HANA XS Administration Tools as the SYSTEM user.

Note: While only the SYSTEM user is able to administer SAML Configuration at this time, extending this ability to other user accounts is being considered for future enhancement.
