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.

CAP in the age of AI #3 - from MCP to A2ApublishedThe episode that finishes @cap-js/mcp@cap-js/mcpA CAP plugin that serves an @mcp-annotated service over MCP with three generated tools, describe, query and call_action, and writes its endpoint into the local agent's configuration in development.sap official, cap with authorisation and then crosses to agents.
@requires and @restrict are the same annotations CAP already has, and the plugin reads them to filter the tool list and the describe output per user and per request, so a model is not told about entities the caller cannot reach — where the OData metadata of the same service lists every exposed entity regardless. The second half annotates a service with @agent from @cap-js/agents@cap-js/agentsSAP's own CDS plugin for building agents inside a CAP service, wired to audit logging and telemetry through peer dependencies rather than leaving observability to the author.sap official, cap, which serves it over A2A with an agent card and a chat preview, runs first against a mocked response and then against SAP AI CoreSAP AI CoreSAP's AI service on BTP: the runtime for AI assets, and through the Generative AI Hub inside it the access to foundation models, the orchestration service with its templating, masking, filtering and grounding modules, the Prompt Registry and Document Grounding.sap official, btp bound with cds bind and a hybrid profile, and reuses the MCP adapter's tools rather than defining new ones.Serve your application over MCPSat 17

Model Context Protocol (MCP)publishedFrames the Model Context Protocol as the answer to an M-times-N integration problem: one shared protocol turns M agents and N tools into M plus N connections, and one server can be called by any compliant agent.

Serve your application over MCPcoverage by flavor revisedSAP's Sapphire 2026 ABAP MCP Server announcement, checked against its own documentation, turned out to answer agent-code-access, not this capability. None of the ABAP door's three providers of this capability states ABAP Cloud as a flavor; abap-ai/mcp names SAP NetWeaver 7.52, a classic-ABAP requirement, and the concern is not one of the classic-only kinds ABAP Cloud excludes, so it reads as unmapped rather than not-applicable.Serve your application over MCP

Building MCP Servers with SAP Integration Suite: What to Design, Not Just How to ConnectpublishedArgues that the tool design, not the connection, is the hard part of putting an API in front of an agent. Works one request — create a customer — through eight endpoint-shaped tools, where the agent carries ids between calls and rebuilds the business rules each run, then through a single intent-shaped create_customer that hides the sequence; and says what separates the two: a business operation for a name, parameters a caller can supply without a lookup, the rules in the server rather than the prompt, and a description written for an agent choosing a tool.

HANA AI Toolkit — Local MCP ServerpublishedAn MCP server that turns the hana-ml Python library into governed tools an agent can call against a HANA Cloud instance, shipped in the hana-ai toolkit and exposed over stdio, SSE and streamable HTTP. Its one firm rule is attributable execution: an audit module writes the MCP-side identity — agent, model, session, tool, redacted arguments — into the HANA connection before any SQL runs, and fails the call if that write fails. A worked example of governance on an MCP tool surface, from SAP's data side rather than CAP's.Serve your application over MCP
