GraphQLUnmapped
September 15th: What's New on developers.sap.comSeptember 15th: What's New on developers.sap.comThomas Jung walks through a week of changes aimed at agentic consumption of developers.sap.com itself: the hosted MCP server gains a published .well-known/mcp.json manifest, curated tools (search_tutorials, get_tutorial_step with a Markdown format option, search_channels), and a listing in the ORD catalog beside its OData, REST and GraphQL APIs. It also documents the site's existing A2A endpoint for the first time and ships a way to turn a tutorial into an installable, cryptographically signed AI Skill with a generated verification script, both concrete instances of agent tooling; separately, five broken GraphQL example queries were fixed and the full SDL is now served, and new sitemap.md, llms.txt fixes and ORD entries round out the site's own metadata publishing.published 2026-09-15

SAP Job Scheduling Service: 🔧 Generate Your Own Client Library from OpenAPI SpecSAP Job Scheduling Service: 🔧 Generate Your Own Client Library from OpenAPI SpecA tutorial on generating a type-safe client library for the SAP Job Scheduling service's REST API from its OpenAPI specification, using the OpenAPI Generator CLI to target Node.js, TypeScript, Java, Python, Go or C#. It walks through OAuth 2.0 client-credentials authentication and the generated client's Jobs API, listing, creating and reading jobs with their cron schedules, and lists what the service's error statuses (400, 401, 404, 409, 429, 503) mean to a caller. It states that the official @sap/jobs-client will be deprecated and tells readers to use a generated client for now.DenisDuev, published 2026-05-04

Reading Between the Lines: Under-Documented Fiori Elements Capabilities in SAPUI5 1.149Reading Between the Lines: Under-Documented Fiori Elements Capabilities in SAPUI5 1.149Reads SAPUI5 1.149's framework source, not its release notes, to show Fiori Elements shifting side-effect refresh, AI field placeholders and multi-user drafting from controller extensions into what the backing service annotates. Event-driven SideEffects push over a WebSocket channel through @cap-js-community/websocket, while Draft handling gains ABAP RAP's live field locking on CAP Node.js through Sören Leibach's own cap-collaborative-draft plugin. Both rest on Fiori annotations such as Common.SideEffects and CollaborativeDraft.enabled, which the frontend reads rather than requiring a manifest flag.published 2026-07-09
Real-Time Architecture in SAP CAP: Mastering Asynchronous Jobs, Gateways with WebSocketsReal-Time Architecture in SAP CAP: Mastering Asynchronous Jobs, Gateways with WebSocketsThe other half of the author's own industrial-data post: mass ingestion is only useful if the screen keeps up, so background jobs push progress to the UI over WebSockets instead of the user reloading. Written from a mission-critical case rather than a demo.rgadirov, published 2026-03-12

SAP Incentive Management - Understanding of CSN file & CLI Command to generateSAP Incentive Management - Understanding of CSN file & CLI Command to generateCSN met from the far end: not as CAP's compiled model but as the interchange format a product hands to Analytics Cloud so a story knows the shape of the data. Explains what CSN is, why the format matters here, and the command that produces one.Yogananda, published 2024-11-19
Native SAP HANA artifactsUnmapped
Connecting Two SAP CAP Projects Without Duplicating Your DataConnecting Two SAP CAP Projects Without Duplicating Your DataCross-container HDI synonyms, argued from the alternatives rather than presented as a recipe: copying the table, standing up an API, or hard-coding the values are the three things the author reports seeing teams do, and each is named as working but unclean. With synonyms in place the consuming project queries the owner's HANA tables through ordinary SQL and ordinary CAP service code, with no replication and nothing to drift between environments. Covers the same ground as Mio Yasutake's 2021 post from a different angle — that one enumerates four topologies, this one argues for one of them.Inderpreet, published 2026-07-08
Temporal dataUnmapped
My CAP Projects ToolboxMy CAP Projects ToolboxA working inventory of daily CAP tooling: scaffolding a project with cds init and growing it facet by facet through cds add (TypeScript, seed data, an .http test file, a handler stub), then running it with cds watch and setting a breakpoint in a custom handler from SAP Business Application Studio's JavaScript Debug Terminal. It also walks through an @open entity that accepts properties the model never declared, and reading temporal data defined with CAP's temporal aspect, where a plain read returns only what is valid now and a custom handler is needed to retrieve every time slice.vvdries, published 2024-12-23

Generating PDF on BTP CF using CAP and PuppeteerGenerating PDF on BTP CF using CAP and PuppeteerA headless browser rendering the PDF, which is the answer people reach for when the document is really a web page. The Cloud Foundry part is the difficulty: Puppeteer needs a browser in the buildpack, and that is what the post is actually about.ltomazeli58, published 2024-03-28
How to Generate and Download PDFs on the fly without persisting in CAP ApplicationHow to Generate and Download PDFs on the fly without persisting in CAP ApplicationStreaming a generated document straight to the client without writing it anywhere first — which sidesteps the retention question a stored file creates, and is the distinction worth having beside the attachments capability.HarsithKumarReddy, published 2024-06-18
RAG on CDSUnmapped
RAG with SAP HANA Cloud Vector Engine, GenAI Hub & CAPRAG with SAP HANA Cloud Vector Engine, GenAI Hub & CAPThe end-to-end version: a CAP service exposing the vector engine and the AI hub behind a couple of endpoints, answering where a CodeJam is on a given date. It has aged in a way the author has marked in the page itself — the section on the CAP LLM plugin now carries "(Outdated)" in its own heading — so read the embedding preparation and the retrieval shape, and check the plugin part against the package.KevinR, published 2024-05-21
Tool governanceUnmapped
MCP Servers are the New Z-TablesMCP Servers are the New Z-TablesA single CAP service exposed as three overlapping MCP servers tools, queried by the same prompt nineteen times, returned the same tool every time — evidence, the author argues, that tool selection rests on the resemblance between a prompt and a tool's description rather than on any binding a where-used list could enumerate before retiring it. It contrasts that setup with @cap-js/mcp, which exposes a whole service as three generic tools instead of one per operation, and quotes the adapter's own beta documentation admitting no rate limiting, audit logging, input validation or approval workflow, and no use as a gateway to SAP Application APIs. From there it names four small Tool governance practices it has adopted: an owner recorded in the tool's own metadata, logging every invocation, deprecating inside the description, and exposing fewer tools.published 2026-08-21
Data privacyUnmapped
Elevating Data Privacy in SAP CAP based GenAI Applications with CAP LLM PluginElevating Data Privacy in SAP CAP based GenAI Applications with CAP LLM PluginThe question underneath the enthusiasm: what leaves your landscape when a prompt goes to a model. The plugin's answer is to anonymise the sensitive fields through HANA before the prompt is sent, and this is the post that explains why that is the design rather than an option.AkashAmarendra, published 2024-02-02

API Composition: Seamless Enterprise Data Access for Developers and AI AgentsAPI Composition: Seamless Enterprise Data Access for Developers and AI AgentsAPI Composition (formerly Graph, a capability of API Management) curates business data graphs from existing SAP and non-SAP API providers, so a query can navigate and expand relationships across systems through one composed API rather than hand-written integration code. Palak walks through combining SAP S/4HANA warehouse-stock data with Everstream Analytics risk data into one API, then exposing that composed API as an MCP server so an AI agent calls it with the same semantic context — the scenario behind API Management's MCP servers coverage.published 2026-07-27
Graph on Integration Suite: Simplifying Multi-API Data Retrieval with Unified Business Data GraphGraph on Integration Suite: Simplifying Multi-API Data Retrieval with Unified Business Data GraphA hands-on walkthrough of Graph, the API Management feature of SAP Integration Suite also called Business Data Graphs, which exposes several OData APIs as one connected data model behind a single OData V4 or GraphQL endpoint. It covers enabling the capability and its Graph.KeyUser and GraphNavigator.Viewer role collections, creating BTP destinations and a service key for an S/4HANA system, then building a Business Data Graph over the Sales Order and Business Partner APIs so a mirrored SoldToParty association returns both in one call, in place of the two OData requests a Cloud Integration Content Enricher would otherwise merge.published 2026-01-09
Information Map – Introduction Series: Graph in SAP Integration SuiteInformation Map – Introduction Series: Graph in SAP Integration SuiteIntroduces Graph, an enhancement to API Management within SAP Integration Suite that gives developers a single API onto an organisation's business systems, modelled as one semantically connected business data graph, later renamed API Composition. Splits the work between an administrator, who enables SAP BTP destinations to the backend systems and builds the business data graph, and a developer, who explores it in the Graph Navigator tool and builds an application against the resulting Graph API.published 2024-02-21
SAP PI Migration to BTP Integration Suite Patterns and learning experiencesSAP PI Migration to BTP Integration Suite Patterns and learning experiencesWalks through the integration patterns an SAP PI migration project moved onto SAP Cloud Integration iFlows — API Management proxies fronting calls into on-premise SAP systems over XI/SOAP via Cloud Connector, SFTP transfers, and eventing routes — and the operational lessons from running it: sizing JMS queues, choosing exactly-once JMS queues over Cloud Integration's Data Store for XI receiver adapters and at-least-once JMS for XI sender adapters, and workarounds for gaps in the migration tooling. The API Management proxies handle JWT validation against a non-SAP identity provider, IP filtering and OData-to-OpenAPI conversion in front of the iFlows.saikrishna_kalivarapu2, published 2024-12-04

Frontend boundaryUnmapped
CAP, CORS and custom headersCAP, CORS and custom headersWhat CAP itself does about CORS, and where it stops. The starting point is a colleague's request and a deliberate constraint: @sap/approuter has full CORS support, but the author wanted to know what the CAP server offers on its own and how to extend it. Ends up covering preflight requests and custom servers, which is the mechanism a frontend hosted outside BTP actually runs into.published 2024-04-11
