Hi
I am trying to create a Salesforce data source connection from Cognos Cloud (Cognos on Demand) .
I used the standard format, just remove the Property piece, and tried to log on using my normal SF credentials.

But no luck?

Is it more complicated than that?

Thanks!

Hi Heather,  

I think there is a bit more to it than that.  Take a look at this link.  https://www.ironsidegroup.com/2014/03/31/integrate-salesforce-com-with-ibm-cognos/

Hi James

I figured it out (using a Tableau resource ;/)

It is actually very easy - but the key difference, is that you need to add a Security Key generated in SF, to your normal user password.  then away you go.

Cheers
Heather
