SAP BTP - Exploring SAP HANA Cloud Central

Posted by on

Subaccount → Services → Instances and Subscriptions → Subscriptions → SAP HANA Cloud → Go to Application






this screen is the Instances page.

This page is meant to list:

  • All SAP HANA Cloud database instances

  • Their status (running, stopped, creating, etc.)

  • Technical details like memory, storage, compute, nodes, and replicas

In a real customer system, this page is where an admin:

  • Monitors databases

  • Starts or stops instances

  • Checks resource usage

So conceptually, this is the main admin dashboard for HANA databases.


We already created a HANA Cloud instance from BTP Cockpit.
So naturally, the question is:

Why is it not visible here?

The answer is in the red warning message. "our user does not yet have the required HANA Cloud roles"


There are two different layers of authorization involved:

  1. BTP-level access

    • Subaccount access

    • Service subscriptions

    • Environment setup

  2. HANA Cloud–level access

    • Database admin roles

    • Tool access roles

    • Assigned inside HANA Cloud context



Lets try to fix the Authorisation issue

Subaccount → Security → Users / Role Collections




Signout and Sign in is needed to get system refreshed.



we are seeing our SAP HANA Cloud database instance in a healthy “Running” state inside SAP HANA Cloud Central.

At this stage, our SAP HANA Cloud instance is successfully running on the Free Tier, and the next step is to log in to the database to start working with real data.
