Questions has anyone tried to link Data Discovery to SharePoint office365? just wondering on how that would work.
What you trying to do Devin? EDD displays BAQs. Active Home page can display web pages and you may be able to build a URL that will display O365 data through the MS Graph.
what we are trying to do is display sales metrics on our intranet that is hosted on sharepoint and for the most part we have the baq created and need to do the graphs and things like that but just need to figure a way to show the information there that updates on schedule.
I believe someone here has taken a BAQ into PowerBI and displayed that as a webpart. We would like to do the same here soon. Worse case scenario, you have a web page with your Epicor data and drop an embedded item onto the page.

So you can embed edd into other websites like sharepoint the only sticking point really is signing in.
Any edd view or dashboards used through the regular ui has a unique url that will return you to that view and will route you through login if you are not logged in. So a simple thing to do is build an edd dashboard with your metrics on it, copy the url, and use the sharepoint website embedding web part and just give it that url. If the user is already logged into edd it’ll display, if not it’ll show them login then return them to the dashboard after they log in.
We have other distinct urls for each dashboard and view which are for embedding (what you see when you place it inside the erp homepage for example) which remove some things from the ui and look a little nicer embedded, but currently they won’t prompt for a login. Possibly we should make a way to use those in sharepoint that does manage login somehow.

@bconner If you don’t mind. Can you tell me how you’re generating the link to embed EDD into SharePoint?
