All of the current Ideas that mention SAP BusinessObjects BI Universe integration are marked as completed as this feature was offered pre June/July release. This is nearly a critical requirement for adoption in my organization.

I had previously heard that this was removed due to licencing restrictions, can we get an official response on that? Is there any possibility of this being re-integrated?

Unfortunately, the Business Objects connector was removed due to a number of reasons.

This will be a very good feature to have as many of us have already invested time and effort creating data Universes in BO, it would be great if we can connect to exiting Universes so as to save that time and effort needed to build semantic layers again

This is a critical success factor for Power BI adoption in our community of Power Users.

Yes if be amazing to have business objects universe connected to Power Bi so can get rid of manual extraction that is currently being done.

It would be all would need to do is amend the filtering in report for the year, month we would want to look at. It would be real time data which is main purpose of having power bi so it is connected to different sources of data.

Still looking for this functionality. Some of our users want to venture out and use Tableau instead of Power BI.

Definitely need a connection to BO Universe, this can help and ignore the Data Modeling already done in Universe, please consider as an important request, thanks.
