🔴 Your Agent Wants to Call SAP. Now What?publishedDevtoberfest 2026 session INT-23, on what belongs between an agent and an SAP system. A solution advisor and an enterprise architect point Joule Desktop extensions at MCP servers built on API Management inside SAP Integration Suite, and ask it for business partners, orders and line items from an S/4HANA demo system; asked for the ten largest customers it answers from a sample of 200 orders rather than reading the whole table. They then open the API proxy behind it, where a spike arrest policy caps the backend at ten calls per second and the MCP server is configured to expose only the GET resources of the business-partner API so that an agent cannot create one, which is where the edges to Serve your application over MCP and Rate limiting hold. For totals across all sales orders they send the agent to SAP Business Data Cloud instead of the transactional system, since it aggregates and is read-only, and back through Integration Suite for writes such as journal entries.Talk,
MCP Gateway in Practice: Architecture, configuration, and hands-onpublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 integration-track session (INT-21) on the MCP gateway of SAP Integration Suite: curated enterprise APIs served to agents as MCP tools over JSON-RPC, behind the authentication, authorization and traffic policies an API artifact already carries, with the existing API layer left in place. The hands-on half composes S/4HANA plant, material-stock and supplier data with a non-SAP location-risk source into one business data graph, downloads its OpenAPI specification, creates an MCP server artifact with tools, prompts and a surge-protection policy over that endpoint, and publishes it as a product in Developer Hub of API Management, where an agent developer subscribes and gets OAuth credentials. An MCP client then asks for 15 brake pads and ranks plants by stock, location risk and distance from Walldorf, which is what the agent access to your systems edge rests on; the Q&A covers principal propagation to the backend, how errors reach the model, and which Integration Suite editions carry the gateway.Talk,
Powering Enterprise-Ready Agentic AI with SAP Integration SuitepublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session (INT-31) from SAP Integration Suite product management on the MCP gateway. The demo creates an MCP server in a design package from an API already deployed on the tenant, exposes two of its 300-odd resources as tools, attaches authentication and quota policies on a policies tab, and publishes the deployed endpoint as an AI product in Developer Hub of API Management, where an agent subscribes and receives a token, URL, key and secret; the calls then show up in monitoring, in message processing logs and in the analytics dashboard, which is the MCP exposure and the tool governance the edges rest on. Three AI features inside Cloud Integration follow: a content migration agent that converts a PI/PO Java mapping into a Groovy script and generates a second integration flow for its lookup, memory profiling during a flow simulation, and root-cause analysis on a failed message processing log.Talk,

SAP BTP Platform Technical User for CTMS IntegrationpublishedWalks through creating a technical user in Cloud Identity Services (IAS) as a custom identity provider, adding it to a subaccount's org, space and role collections, and switching a Destinations entry's authentication to OAuth2Password with the Cloud Foundry login endpoint as token service URL and an origin property naming the custom IDP. The technical user lets CI/CD pipelines, API calls and transport automation authenticate without human credentials, keeping service accounts separate from people for audit and access control.Blog,

Integrate SAP Business Technology Platform audit logs with IBM Security QRadarpublishedWalks through pulling entries from the SAP Audit Log service for a Cloud Foundry subaccount, via its retrieval API and a service key downloaded from the SAP Authorization and Trust Management service, into IBM Security QRadar as a Universal Cloud REST API log source. A sample audit event, a data read event under audit.data-access, drives a custom QRadar DSM mapping event ID and category, then the walkthrough deletes a user from a Kyma role collection and shows the matching audit logging entry arrive in QRadar as an offense.Blog,
Nice patch SAP! Revisiting your SAP BTP security measures after AI Core vulnerability fixpublishedWritten after the SAPwned disclosure in SAP AI Core, it argues SAP BTP's shared-responsibility model still requires the customer's own hardening: scope SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry Runtime and SAP BTP, Kyma runtime app access, rotate OAuth2 client-credentials secrets, and enforce MFA and Conditional Access through a corporate identity provider rather than relying on SAP's patch alone. It then explains how the SAP Audit Log service writes standardized events for most Cloud Foundry BTP services, and walks through onboarding a BTP subaccount into Microsoft Sentinel for SAP BTP to query those logs with Kusto and build detection rules that flag unexpected login countries or known-bad IPs and trigger automatic user blocks.Blog,
SAP BTP Audit log Enable and retrieve logspublishedWalks through enabling and retrieving records from the SAP Audit Log service on SAP BTP's Cloud Foundry environment: the default oAuth2 service plan retains audit data for 90 days at no cost, while the premium plan adds a configurable retention period and lets an application write its own audit data. Covers the three subscription plans (premium, default for a subaccount, central for a global account) and the CLI steps to create a service instance and key, then retrieve records as JSON through the Auditlog Management Service's REST API using an OAuth2 client-credentials token in Postman.Blog,
SAP Business Technology Platform: Authorization and Trust Management ServicepublishedWalks through how the SAP Authorization and Trust Management service secures a BTP application: scopes, attributes and role templates in the security descriptor, and the OAuth 2.0 resource-owner, client and resource-server roles it builds on. Covers the XSUAA microservice as the OAuth 2.0 authorization server bound to each application through its service broker, the signed JSON Web Token it issues after authentication, and the App Router's place in front of the resource apps as the gateway that starts authentication and checks for cross-site request forgery.Blog,

How to enable SAP Audit Log Viewer service to collect all Audit logs from BTP Services - Part 1publishedWalks through subscribing to the SAP Audit Log service's viewer app from the SAP BTP cockpit and creating a RoleCollection from the auditlog-management and auditlog-viewer role templates, assigned to a user or by a rule on the IDP's SAML assertion, to read audit logging events in a subaccount. The post's own update notes that a BTP release from 19 February 2026 removed the need for that role-assignment step. It also lists which Cloud Foundry services write audit log events, pointing to each service's own auditing page rather than detailing them here.Blog,
Microsoft Sentinel for SAP goes agentlesspublishedExplains how Microsoft Sentinel for SAP's new agentless data connector drops its Docker-based collector agent by reusing an existing SAP Cloud Connector setup together with SAP Integration Suite: on SAP NetWeaver 750 and later, a small set of RFC function modules must be reachable from Integration Suite, added as an RFC connection in the subaccount's Destinations maintenance view, with a user authorised to call them (RFC connectivity). It also covers calling the audit log API remotely, which on older releases needs SAP note 3054326 and a different integration-package configuration.Blog,

Evolving the identity lifecycle for an AI-first futurepublishedCloud Identity Services as the foundation for authentication, identity lifecycle management and access across SAP landscapes, and the agent identity concepts and SAP-managed identity and access management scenarios SAP says reduce operational effort. The edges are to the service and to the two concerns the abstract names it for, Authentication and Identity provisioning; the abstract names the agent identity concepts and does not say what they are. A TechEd 2026 session (Tuesday 27 October, Berlin), presented by Sonia Petrescu and Swetta Singh, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,
Future-ready access governance from SAP: Strategy and innovationpublishedStrategy and road map for SAP Access Control and SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance: AI-enabled governance, hybrid deployment options and identity services for securing SAP landscapes and compliance. Neither product has an entry here; the edge is to Identity provisioning, the nearest concern, since access governance decides which users hold which roles in which systems, and the abstract names no identity service by name. A TechEd 2026 session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Sonia Petrescu and Swetta Singh, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,
How SAP secures enterprise AI agents with identity propagationpublishedCloud Identity Services as the identity layer for AI agents as well as people: the abstract states that both are managed in one directory, that user context is propagated by token exchange, and that authorisation is enforced at every hop, so no agent holds back-end credentials. Agents from Microsoft, Google and partners take the same flow through the agent gateway. Token exchange across a hop is the authentication side and the per-hop check the authorisation side; what the agent gateway is, and whether it is a product, the abstract does not say. A TechEd 2026 session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Gunnar Kosche and Sebastian Ries, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,
Identity lifecycle and governance with SAP services and Microsoft EntrapublishedCloud Identity Services beside SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance and Microsoft Entra for one user lifecycle across SAP and third-party applications: the abstract states that SAP business roles can be included in Entra access packages, so that provisioning and governance run from Entra in a hybrid environment, which is the identity provisioning concern. Which SAP systems' roles, and over which protocol, is not stated. A TechEd 2026 session (Tuesday 27 October, Berlin), presented by Martin Raepple of Microsoft, Plamen Pavlov, Regine Schimmer and Swetta Singh, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,

Road map for SAP Integration Suite: What ships next across all capabilitiespublishedSAP's road map for SAP Integration Suite across its capability areas: API Management, event-driven integration, business process and trading partner integration, and hybrid runtimes for SAP and third-party systems. The abstract promises recent deliveries and the planned innovations that make the platform agent-ready within SAP Business AI Platform; it names the areas and no shipping item, so the edges rest on the product and the one area it names by a product name. A TechEd 2026 session (Thursday 29 October, Berlin; also IN804V, virtual), written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,
Road map: SAP Business AI Platform security and SAP Cloud Identity ServicespublishedThe road map for SAP Business AI Platform's security and compliance services, Cloud Identity Services and SAP Key Management Service among them, and the upcoming changes SAP files under security, governance and compliance. The edge is to Cloud Identity Services, the one named service with an entry here; SAP Key Management Service has none, and the abstract names no item of the road map. A TechEd 2026 session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Michael Friedrich and Sascha Vierlinger, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.Talk,

Making the Case for Enhanced REST Adapter in SAP Integration SuitepublishedCatalogues what SAP Integration Suite's native HTTP adapter supports for authentication (Basic, OAuth 2.0 client credentials and client certificates on the sender; OAuth 2.0 client credentials and SAML bearer assertion on the receiver) and for error handling (retry on HTTP failure only, with no pattern-based retry, failure queues or dead-letter queues), and that it has no OpenAPI import or export. Three worked scenarios, FedEx shipment tracking, Avalara AvaTax and SAP Ariba's operational reporting API, name what that leaves to Groovy scripting: the other OAuth 2.0 flows, gzip and multipart payloads, and pagination that chains a nextPageToken by JSONPath, which is the case the piece makes for the third-party Advantco REST Adapter.Blog,

IPS provisioning to ABAP Cloud Developer TrialpublishedWalks through provisioning users and groups from SAP Cloud Identity Services' Identity Provisioning into an ABAP Cloud Developer Trial system on Docker, reached through a Cloud Connector and an RFC destination in the BTP subaccount. The author's lessons learned tie the setup to the identity service's own constraints: the subaccount needs a Connectivity Plan and must share the Cloud Identity Service tenant's region, and on the ABAP side an IAS group lands as a Business Role rather than in SUGR, with the Login Name mapped to SU01's user field.Blog,

#SAPCAP: Win Customer Trust using Data Privacy and Protection Services on BTP - Part 1publishedFirst of a three-part series on designing a CAP application on BTP that uses the platform's data privacy services, and this part is the vocabulary before any of it: personal data, the rights a data subject has under GDPR, and the data controller and processor distinction, worked through an order-confirmation SMS example. It names four BTP services: SAP Personal Data Manager, SAP Data Retention Manager, SAP Data Privacy Integration and SAP Audit Log service. Only the first is described, as a service running in the Cloud Foundry environment that finds data subjects across one or more applications and services, makes requests on an individual's behalf about their personal information and forwards them for handling, and notifies individuals which of their personal information is being used or sends them a copy of their record by email; the CAP-side annotations and PDM's own application features follow in Part 2 and Part 3.Blog,
How to handle “usernames”, “Global User IDs” and “external IDs” in your landscape?publishedExplains what a username, a Global User ID and a SCIM2 external ID each are and when to use them: the username is the mutable attribute a person authenticates with, the Global User ID is the correlation attribute SAP uses when the same user must be identified between the applications they are provisioned into, and the external ID is mutable, defined by the client and optional within SCIM2. Argues against deriving any of the three from personal data, because they appear in read-only log files and other traces, some applications do not allow an ID change at all, and DevOps staff with access to those logs would otherwise see personal data they are not allowed to see. Recommends generating values without personal data, in uuid format, for technical integrations such as SAML or OIDC flows and SCIM-based replication, and keeping attributes like an email or display name for logon aliases and for what a user interface shows; notes that Cloud Identity Services already generates the SCIM ID and Global User ID in uuid format for each record.Blog,
Integrating SAP Cloud Identity Services (Identity Authentication - IAS) with SAP Audit Log ViewerpublishedWalks through wiring an Identity Authentication tenant of Cloud Identity Services into the SAP Audit Log service on SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry: from the tenant's Monitoring & Reporting tile, adding the target BTP subaccount's tenant ID and subdomain ties the two together, and after a 15-20 minute wait the resulting Audit Log Viewer link surfaces logs of personal-data changes and of successful and failed authentications. Logs are then filtered by date and keyword, each entry carrying its event category, event and object type, timestamp, and the user who performed the action.Blog,
SAP Cloud Integration (CI/CPI) - Reusable Script Collection Pattern for Sensitive Data MaskingpublishedOpens with the question compliance teams ask about Cloud Integration, whether an integration team based outside Europe with Message Monitoring access can read the personal data in a logged payload, and answers that in most standard configurations it can. The pattern against it is a reusable Groovy script collection plus one global variable holding the masking rules: a script near the start of an iFlow AES-encrypts the original payload into a header or property and replaces values in the body by value pattern first and field-name keyword second, a second script restores the original just before the sender, so a Log Payload step anywhere in the flow captures the masked body while the target system still receives the real data. The post names its own limits, that pattern-based masking is heuristic and that CPI trace can capture the payload before the scripts run, and grounds the pattern in GDPR Articles 5(1)(f), 25, 32 and 44-49, reading the EDPB's Guidelines 05/2021 to mean that access from a country without an EU adequacy decision, uncovered by Standard Contractual Clauses or another valid transfer mechanism, can itself constitute a cross-border transfer.Blog,

What Happens to Your Data When You Enable SAP's AI Features?publishedTraces where a prompt goes when Joule, the Generative AI Hub or the orchestration service calls a third-party model through SAP AI Core: the prompt and the business context around it travel to a model such as GPT-4o, Claude or Gemini for inference, and masking through SAP Data Privacy Integration is an optional orchestration module rather than a default, so with no masking block in the @sap-ai-sdk/orchestration client config nothing is masked. On the masking options, which the author says he confirmed with SAP AI Core product management, anonymization discards the original value and pseudonymization keeps it reversible; DPI recognizes person names, email addresses and phone numbers, plus custom entities defined by regex, which leaves commercially sensitive non-PII such as a revenue forecast or a project codename to pass through unless someone writes a pattern for it, and whether that data is covered at all is one of three answers the post marks as still pending. The "no training" assurance for third-party providers is read as contractual rather than technical, and models hosted and managed by SAP, Mistral among them, are named as a path other than a US-hyperscaler-hosted one.Blog,

Automating User Offboarding in SAP BTP Across Multiple Subaccounts with PowerShell & BTP CLIpublishedA PowerShell script that pairs with the SAP BTP command line interface to delete a list of user e-mails from every trusted identity provider, sap.default included, across every subaccount the caller can reach, writing a timestamped log of each attempt. It automates the offboarding half of identity provisioning — getting a user out of every system that holds them once they leave — by chaining btp list accounts/subaccount, btp list security/trust and btp delete security/user rather than going through a provisioning job or the SCIM API.Blog,
SAP BTP Audit Log Access Just Got Easier - Here’s What’s NewpublishedAnnounces that the Audit Log Viewer no longer needs a per-subaccount subscription: entitlement and setup now happen automatically in every subaccount of SAP Audit Log service. It also adds a viewer at the Global Account level, opened directly from the BTP cockpit rather than through a dedicated instance.Blog,

Perform SAP Principal Propagation with Microsoft Entra ID for SAP SuccessFactors!publishedWalks through SAP Principal Propagation for SAP SuccessFactors through SAP Integration Suite's API Management, using the OAuth2SAMLBearer flow with Microsoft Entra ID as the external identity provider. Covers the SuccessFactors-specific policy from the SAP Business Accelerator Hub, the API key and company id SuccessFactors uses in place of an OAuth2 client id, and the Entra ID app registration and key value map that exchange an Entra ID token for a SAP-authorized named user, so a consumer such as Power Automate runs under the mapped SAP user rather than a shared technical account.Blog,

Why SAP Cloud Identity Matters for SAP Task Center: It’s About Trust and Global User IDpublishedA step-by-step configuration walkthrough for wiring SAP Cloud Identity Services as the trust and user-correlation layer behind SAP Task Center: establishing Identity Authentication as the sole trusted identity provider for the BTP subaccount, and generating the Global User ID — carried in the token's user_uuid claim rather than the SAML name identifier — that Task Center uses to match logged-in users to their tasks. It also covers syncing that ID between Microsoft Entra ID, the Identity Directory and SAP S/4HANA through Identity Provisioning jobs, and the principal-propagation trust the cloud connector needs to pass it through to an on-premise task provider.Blog,
