Multiple Server connection on SisenseJS
Is there a good way to connect to and display Dashboards & widgets from multiple Sisense servers? passing a different url to Sisense.connect() doesn't seem to work - you can only connect to one server or the other, but not both (i.e you can't display 2 dashboards that are each from different servers.

Ah bummer! So close and yet so far (authentication, REST API etc are all working for the multi-server solution). The use case: We have two Sisense servers for two separate products, the goal is to have an integrated screen where you can display dashboard/widgets from each of the servers. So the user can create a screen with a dashboard from SisenseServer/Product A and perhaps a few dashboards/widgets from Server/Product B.

I'm not sure if this would be an appropriate solution for you, but you could have one (or both) server host all of the dashboards, while the Elasticubes (the data itself) remains on separated servers.
Dashboards can query remote Elasticubes, as long as they are added as data sources in the Admin panel. With this approach, you could use just one Sisense.js connection, but keep your data segregated. Whether this approach is applicable depends on the reason for separating data to two servers.
