It sets up the mobile destination against SAP Destination serviceSAP Destination serviceNamed, credentialed addresses of other systems, resolved at runtime — so an application holds no URL and no secret of its own, and the same code reaches a different system in every landscape.sap official, btp two ways — reusing the BTP destination already created for the CAP service, or an Internet Destination with OAuth2 User Token Exchange and a manually retrieved client secret — and turns on Cross Context SSO so a token issued in the browser carries into the generic SAP Mobile Services Client app on the phone.Mobile apps

How Have SAP Customers Adopted n8npublishedA Devtoberfest 2026 session on what SAP customers are building with the standalone edition of n8n, from a partner who maintains an SAP OData node for it: use cases across purchase-to-pay, sales, finance and IT service, two live workflows, and the rules he works to — released SAP APIs only, no LLM in the decision path, exceptions to a person. The tool-choice half is where the edges hold: SAP Integration SuiteSAP Integration SuiteSAP's integration service on BTP: Cloud Integration for orchestration, API Management in front of it, and an MCP gateway that serves a managed API to agents.sap official, btp is placed as the job for governed, high-volume system-to-system integration, and its MCP server is what the agent in the second demo reads SAP data through, while process automationProcess automationModelling and running a business process: the process flow, the forms people fill in, decision tables, bots for repetitive steps, and dashboards over the instances that run. Starting a process from an application and reacting to it is workflow integration, and the screen a person approves a task on is task and approval UIs.SAP only is the concern the session sorts between document intake, approvals and the bot inventory that stays with RPA. The first demo is an order-confirmation check that reads a PDF, compares the lines against the purchase order over OData, asks a person, then writes the confirmation back.Process automation

Since the Public environment is deprecated as of the end of 2025, a call into any other environment also needs an

Covers the permission split between an authenticated user, who needs the ProcessAutomationAdmin or ProcessAutomationParticipant role collection to appear as the one who completed the task, and Client Credentials, which completes it as a generic client identity, plus the error codes the API returns for a missing instance, an already-completed task or an invalid status.Process automationSAP Build Process Automationで「グループ宛て承認ワークフロー」を構築するpublishedWalks through building a group-addressed approval workflow in SAP Build Process AutomationSAP Build Process AutomationSAP's low-code and no-code tool for business processes: graphical process models, drag-and-drop forms, decision tables and robotic process automation bots, with dashboards over running process instances.sap official, btp: a user group created in SAP Cloud Identity ServicesCloud Identity ServicesIdentity Authentication and Identity Provisioning as one tenant: the login, the user store or the federation to a corporate identity provider, and the provisioning of users into whatever sits behind it.sap official, btp is bound to the app so an approval step can send one request to every group member's inbox at once, closing as soon as any one of them acts. The approval formTask and approval UIsThe screen a person approves something on — a workflow or process task rendered as a form, embedded in an inbox that supplies its context. Distinct from workflow integration, which is about driving the engine: this is the half a human touches, and its hard part is that it cannot run without the engine that normally feeds it.SAP only shown in that inbox carries a Claim button that hides a claimed task from the other members, and the workflowWorkflow integrationDriving an external workflow or automation engine from an application and reacting to what it emits — triggering runs transactionally and importing the engine’s shape as a typed model.SAP and community, core adopted it's approval step binds its group recipients to the field the requester chose on the start form.Task and approval UIs
