Getting Started

Hi,For some time now, I have been looking for a way to display my subscribers in my diagram.Example:I have the application Confluence, and with a show dependency, I would like to display my manager/responsible linked to the information sheets.Is it possible to do this, or is it under development?Thank you :)

I’m excited to join the LeanIX community and start engaging with fellow practitioners who are passionate about Enterprise Architecture, application transparency, and driving meaningful business transformation.I work closely with ERP modernization, SAP S/4HANA transformations, and IT landscape optimization, with a strong focus on connecting business strategy to technology execution. A big part of my work involves helping organizations gain clarity into their application portfolios, dependencies, and roadmaps which is exactly where LeanIX brings tremendous value.I’m particularly interested in:Application portfolio rationalization and lifecycle management Linking business capabilities, processes, and applications Supporting clean‑core and cloud transformation journeys Using LeanIX together with tools like SAP Signavio, Cloud ALM, and automation platforms to create an end‑to‑end transformation storylineI’m looking forward to learning from your experiences, exchanging best practices, and co

Hello,Just wondering if anyone tried mastering Application Interfaces in ServiceNow CMDB and export them to LeanIX Interface factsheets?We are planning to track out Application integrations in CMDB which would get this information from Middleware applications.Then, using cmdb_rel_ci table relationship is created between App A to App B (App1 → App2), using provided_by, used_by, depends_on, etc relationships. CMDB is used more for operational purposes - impact analysis, change/incident management, service mapping. While LeanIX should have “business view” of integration without technical details.We want to push this data to LeanIX, by creating one Interface factsheet per integration.Has anyone had this use case of getting integrations data from CMDB to LeanIX ? Thanks,Mantautas Daunys.   

Hi everyone, I work for a global org active in about 80 countries. For orgs who work in a lot of countries and want to report at a global, country, regional level, how do you set up your organization fact sheets? Any ideas on the best ways to do this? Thanks!

Hello everyoneI’m trying to get EOL date in lifecycle, this is because I need to validate if the lifecycle date is still active or has already expired. In case it has ended, I need to change the risk status value to unacceptable, with a calculable field. The issue is that when I try to do that, it shows me this error. Could someone help me?this picture is the base field to get the date, to validate against todayThis is the issue:  

I'm looking to automate the management of applications nearing their End of Life (EOL) in LeanIX. I need to set up an automation that notifies the EA team, exports all data for these applications, and then effectively "archives" them within LeanIX. Any advice on the best approach, including webhook implementation for data export and suitable storage solutions?

Is there a known outage? As of about 35 minutes ago, just after 10am EDT, I am unable to open any fact sheet page. Dashboards, Inventory, Reports all appear but as soon as I try to open a Fact Sheet I just get a continuously refreshing progress bar at the top of the page.

Hi there,has anyone of you got Interface Discovery - a new capability of the SAP Discovery integration - up and running? If so, does it disccover interfaces properly?  We haven`t got it running yet. Tickets (SAP for Me) were already opened, but we seem running in circles.All configurations on the CALM & LeanIX side were made, but interfaces won`t be discovered, but should…Anyone else out there who`s using that feature? If not, why not?Thank you very much in advance for any response!BR Eric  

Hello everyone,​@ces and I are currently exploring whether it would make sense to launch a dedicated Telecommunications User Group within the community like the ones we have for Healthcare.Check our discussion here.Before we move forward, we’d love to understand how many active members here belong to the telecommunications space — and whether this is something you would find valuable.How you can helpIf you’re part of the Telecommunications industry, just drop a quick “hello” to introduce yourself below along with:Your role Your company (optional) Your thoughts on whether a dedicated Telco user group would be useful or interesting for youYour feedback will help us understand the level of interest and whether we should take the next step toward creating a focused group.Thanks,Shreenith 

Hi,Thanks for your interest in advance. I’ve got a bit of a ghost problem.I have created a new subscription Responsible, ‘First Point of Contact’ which gives me an easy way to delegate within my organisation.To date I have been using the ‘lead architect’ role to do this but it has not been right hence I’m trying to change it.I’m trying to use export/import to copy the current lead architect names into the new ‘First Point of Contact’  subscription. I’ve  enabled multiple subscriptions for the environment.I’ve uploaded the updated spreadsheets and it said it worked.howeverI can’t see any responsible ‘first point of contact’ in the interface or when I export the data into a spreadsheet.However (again)When I try to redo the upload, it errors to say they already exist…..but I can’t see them. Can anybody bust my ghost please? Thanks Paul

I’m trying to run poll using APIs, I’m using this URL https://Mycompany.leanix.net/services/poll/v2/pollRuns/ + ID, but doesn’t work, I would like to change the status from draft to live

We have been working on modeling our Salesforce org into LeanIX differently than we originally implemented.  We have looked at the help files - Salesforce Applications Modeling Best Practices | SAP Help Portal   I was curious how people typically account for managed packages, especially when it is an application we already own.  For example... We have Five9 as its own app and we also have the Five9 CTI connector installed as a managed package in Salesforce.  In several cases we are paying for the connector so I am also curious how people track cost.

I have two questions about the new Self-Service SSO setup and migration. I have read the migration guide and watched the provided step-by-step video, but I find two items still not clear: Can the same IdP connection be used for multiple workspaces (e.g. production and sandbox)? The instructions only talk about "To add a new IdP” but never talk about any ability to re-use an existing connection that is in use for another workspace. Is that possible? If it is possible to use/share the same IdP connection across workspaces, then does LeanIX still recommend using different IdPs for production and sandbox (with two different Entra applications, one for prod and one for sandbox)?

Hi Community! My name is Andrés. I'm working as a Senior Solution Architect for Movistar ArgentinaWe're taking our first steps toward implementing SAP Leanix. I'm very happy to join the community to share knowledge and experiences.I'm currently taking the Leanix training courses at https://learning.sap.com/ and I'm having a problem: I can't connect to the Demo workspace using the username certification@leanix.net (wrong user/pass). Any help would be greatly appreciated.Best Regards

Contact me if your company in Greater China want to get support for LeanIX.

Is anyone tinkering with the MCP server? It seems to be missing fairly basic functionality like retrieving all the fact sheets of a given type. It has an action to get all applications, or to search for fact sheets of a given type, but the search doesn’t support a wildcard, so there appears to be no way to get a list of fact sheets of a given type. Has anyone run into this?Thanks -Dan

Hi,I have a question regarding the ServiceNow–LeanIX integration. I’m trying to understand how to synchronize specific fields from ServiceNow into LeanIX.Our current source of truth is LeanIX, and the out-of-the-box integration performs a one-way synchronization from LeanIX to ServiceNow. However, we have a use case where the Accountable Manager is updated in ServiceNow and needs to be reflected back in LeanIX.Do you have any advice or recommendations on how to implement this? Also, do you know whether the out-of-the-box integration supports bi-directional synchronization for the same field?Regards,

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well.I'd like to ask for your guidance on two specific use cases in LeanIX:Cost Visualization: Is it possible to generate pie charts or bar graphs that show the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of applications? We only find sums of quantity, but not much configuration. And we'd like to group by specific tags for example. Is it possible? We've already have the TCO Extention  Version Management: What's the best practice for seeing evolutionary improvements in an application while maintaining its history? My goal is to track the evolution without having to create multiple new Fact Sheets for each version, thus avoiding unnecessary duplicates in the inventory.Thank you very much in advance for your recommendations!

Users who were previously assigned to specific access entities in LeanIX had these entities removed from their accounts. As a result, their access to the corresponding factsheets was revoked.

We have set up the Business Owner subscription to be required when creating a new application fact sheet but I want it to be optional and no longer required. Only the Application Owner should be required. When I go to change this, the "Mandatory" check box is greyed out and it says "This can only be changed in self-configuration". How do I change this so it's no longer required when creating a new fact sheet?  

I'm confused about the relationship between Application Lifecycle and Business Capability dates in LeanIX.When I fill out an Application fact sheet, I can already specify the Lifecycle status (Plan, Phase In, Active, Phase Out, End of Life). However, when I map that same application to a Business Capability, the system asks me to enter 'Active From' and 'Active Until' dates again.For example, if a customer uses SAP and has already filled in the Application Lifecycle, why do I need to specify these dates again at the Business Capability level? What's the purpose of having both, and what's the difference between them? The distinction isn't clear to me 

How on earth do you get the interfaces map to work?It is frustrating me to high heavens, and I am ready to cal it quits with the entire LeanIX MESS. I have active interfaces. I have Active provider applications. I have Active Consume Interfaces.Why on earth is there still a message about missing data?What is this Circle Map report looking at in order for it to include “inventory”.Whilst on the topic, shouldn’t it give a more descriptive set of data, or a “true” create from scratch reporting tool to get at least operational data out of the application? Help, please. 

How to model Power Apps applications in LeanIX as they are huge in number and might consume license numbers but these applications are used locally which supports single capabilities?

Hi everyone,We’re preparing to import preliminary application data into LeanIX using Excel, but currently don’t have any External App IDs assigned to the applications.Looking for best practices or recommended formats that have worked well for generating unique, consistent, and persistent External App IDs—especially during the initial import phase.Any suggestions or examples from your experience would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Hello Everyone, I am quite new on LeanIX and I have some basic questions particularly Technology Architecture. I would like to create a Tehcnology Application/Solutions Buildng Blocks, ABB-SBB catalogue on LeanIX, but there is no ready excel file for that. Where should I start?In addition, I need to create Roadmap report for each and every SBB.Could lifecycle information be enough for IT components, but what about for physical data centres or cloud subscriptions? Should I also create them as IT components with their contract lifetimes?
