Effective Axios Error Logging for Robust SAP IntegrationsEffective Axios Error Logging for Robust SAP IntegrationsTwo logged failures printed side by side, and the point is made by looking at them: one tells you what went wrong and one does not. Axios buries the useful part of an HTTP error, and this is what to unwrap before logging it from a CAP service.Sahil2508, published 2025-08-31

AI-assisted full stack development using model context protocol serversAI-assisted full stack development using model context protocol serversMCP servers in Visual Studio Code used to configure, query and change a full-stack application built with CAP, CDS and OData: the agent access to your code concern, a coding assistant reading and changing the project it works in. The abstract names no server, so neither @cap-js/mcp-server nor any other is attached, and it does not say which changes are made. A TechEd 2026 session (Thursday 29 October, Berlin), presented by Sergio Guerrero, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.
Consume Remote Services in a Full-Stack CAP ApplicationConsume Remote Services in a Full-Stack CAP ApplicationExtending the Developer's Guide application with a remote S/4HANA service — connectivity, importing the Business Partner API, and running against it. SAP publishes this as four separate paths: mock server or real S/4HANA Cloud, times Cloud Foundry or Kyma. One entry covers all four, because the difference between them is which backend and which runtime, not what you learn.SAP

How to add OData v2 adapter proxy to your CAP projectHow to add OData v2 adapter proxy to your CAP projectThe problem is stated in one line — a UI5 application that only speaks OData v2 in front of a CAP service that speaks v4 — and the answer is a proxy in the middle rather than a rewrite of either end. Written while v4 support in the UI5 stack was still patchy, which is the whole reason the adapter exists.published 2020-06-30

How to Perform Initial Loads from S/4HANA to Advanced Event Mesh with Odata PollHow to Perform Initial Loads from S/4HANA to Advanced Event Mesh with Odata PollWalks through building a Cloud Integration flow that polls the S/4HANA Business Partner OData API on a timer, splits the response into individual records, and publishes each as an event to Advanced Event Mesh through its adapter, with the topic set dynamically from a grouping property. Selects fields and expands associations with $select/$expand against an EDMX from the API Business Hub, and works around the OData V2 adapter's lack of JSON support by falling back to the HTTP adapter with an XML-to-JSON converter. Flags the trade-off: the pattern needs no backend change beyond activating the API, but the polled payload has to stay aligned with whatever event format the ERP pushes on change.AlexPfeil, published 2025-04-04

Communicate from a Java Application to ABAP via WebSocket RFC using JCo - Migration GuideCommunicate from a Java Application to ABAP via WebSocket RFC using JCo - Migration GuideWalks a JCo setup from classic CPIC-based RFC to WebSocket RFC: swap the application- or message-server logon properties for jco.client.wshost and jco.client.wsport, and implement DestinationDataProvider's getSSLContext (and, for mTLS, getClientCertificate) since the new connection runs over TLS. It covers building the PKI trust on both sides — a local PKCS12 keystore for the Java side, STRUST's SSL-Server Standard certificate exported and imported for mutual trust on the ABAP side — and notes that on BTP, JCo paired with the Destination service already implements this via the Connectivity service, so the custom SSLContext work can be skipped there.simon_luser, published 2025-01-21

SAP HANA Cloud as an Esri GeodatabaseSAP HANA Cloud as an Esri GeodatabaseSAP's design for running an Esri ArcGIS Enterprise geodatabase inside SAP HANA Cloud, so that geometries and SAP business data sit in one database and are joined in a HANA calculation view, which is the spatial part of graph, spatial and document data. It traces three personas: an analyst in ArcGIS Pro building query layers over that view, a developer whose CAP application models spatial types such as ST_Point in CDS, and an analyst using a Fiori app on top of such an application. The deployment advice stops at placement: ArcGIS Server and HANA Cloud go in the same region and availability zone, because Esri's certified architectures allow under 5 milliseconds of network latency between them.published 2025-03-25

SAP HANA Data Lake Files (HDLF) Basic FunctionalitiesSAP HANA Data Lake Files (HDLF) Basic FunctionalitiesA Devtoberfest 2026 data-track session on SAP HANA data lake files, the managed object store inside SAP HANA Cloud that is provisioned from HANA Cloud Central, priced per API call and per stored gigabyte, and reached with the same REST API whichever hyperscaler it runs on. Two product managers set up an instance with its IP allow list, client certificates and trusts, then upload, list, read and delete files over the WebHDFS REST API and the HDLFS command-line utility — the Object storage half — and cover file versions with snapshots, access policies per file, and chunked upload with a server-side merge. They then link the instance to a HANA database and query a CSV file as a virtual table: SQL on files now runs through a file adapter in the database, while the older path through the data lake relational engine is deprecated.SAP Developers

On AWS it draws two paths, an ID token from Identity Authentication in Cloud Identity Services exchanged through AWS STS for an IAM role, or an X.509 certificate kept in SAP Destination service and presented to IAM Roles Anywhere; on Google Cloud only the token path, through Workload Identity Federation and an impersonated service account.

How to Perform Initial Loads from S/4HANA to Advanced Event Mesh with Odata PollHow to Perform Initial Loads from S/4HANA to Advanced Event Mesh with Odata PollWalks through building a Cloud Integration flow that polls the S/4HANA Business Partner OData API on a timer, splits the response into individual records, and publishes each as an event to Advanced Event Mesh through its adapter, with the topic set dynamically from a grouping property. Selects fields and expands associations with $select/$expand against an EDMX from the API Business Hub, and works around the OData V2 adapter's lack of JSON support by falling back to the HTTP adapter with an XML-to-JSON converter. Flags the trade-off: the pattern needs no backend change beyond activating the API, but the polled payload has to stay aligned with whatever event format the ERP pushes on change.AlexPfeil, published 2025-04-04

AI-accelerated RISE with SAP migration with the system transition workbenchAI-accelerated RISE with SAP migration with the system transition workbenchSAP Joule for Consultants and the RISE with SAP system transition workbench in a move to SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition: readiness assessments, migration workflows and the SAP tools involved. The edge is to SAP Joule, of which Joule for Consultants is a part; the system transition workbench has no entry here, and Platform migration covers applications leaving older BTP platforms, not an ERP system's move.

Build your first agent with Joule Studio in a pro-code wayBuild your first agent with Joule Studio in a pro-code wayThe command line interface of Joule Studio, which the atlas holds as @sap/joule-work-dev-cli-early-adopters, carries an agent from a structured intent through generated product requirements documentation and wired APIs to a deployment on Joule Studio's SAP-managed runtime, in one guided flow. SAP's abstract names the stages of that pipeline and promises working code at the end; what the generated requirements and APIs look like is not described.

Building agentic applications with SAP HANA CloudBuilding agentic applications with SAP HANA CloudA CAP application extended with semantic search and agent features on top of SAP HANA Cloud's vector engine and SAP AI Core, built in a hands-on workshop. The abstract names the parts, CAP, the vector engine and AI Core, and the two additions: semantic search, the retrieval half of retrieval-augmented generation, and LLM-supported agent capabilities inside the application, which is agent tooling. Which embedding model, which CAP runtime and how the agent calls its tools are not stated.

Building custom Joule Agents with SAP Knowledge GraphBuilding custom Joule Agents with SAP Knowledge GraphCustom Joule Agents built in a hands-on with SAP Knowledge Graph and Joule Studio: discovering APIs from a user's intent, grounding an agent's answers in business context, and integrating data products for SAP Business Data Cloud. The agents are SAP Joule's; the Knowledge Graph is not an atlas entry, and the abstract does not say which Joule Studio edition the exercises use. A TechEd 2026 hands-on session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Jan Portisch, Lucas Kiesow, Pavithra G K and Rafael Martin, written here from SAP's abstract; no recording is announced.
Building enterprise agent extensions with the Joule Studio solutionBuilding enterprise agent extensions with the Joule Studio solutionExtending SAP's standard agents with third-party integrations and business actions in Joule Studio: agents that run a process across systems, call an external service, put an approval step in the middle and bring the result back into the business context, which is what SAP Joule's agents do and what Joule Studio, classic edition is in the atlas. The abstract names Joule Studio without saying which edition the exercise uses, and lists outcomes rather than the steps built.

Connecting AI agents to the ABAP RESTful application programming modelConnecting AI agents to the ABAP RESTful application programming modelJoule Studio, classic edition connects Joule Agents to applications built with the ABAP RESTful application programming model through actions and skills, calling the OData services those applications expose their business objects through: the tools an agent may call, which is the agent tooling concern seen from the ABAP side. The abstract promises alternative integration patterns and does not name them.

Content-based Agents with SAP Joule Studio Agent BuilderContent-based Agents with SAP Joule Studio Agent BuilderJoule Studio, classic edition, the capability in SAP Build the page calls Joule Studio, is where an organisation creates and manages its own Joule skills and Joule agents; its Agent Builder is for a custom agent that handles a multi-step task by combining instructions, model-backed planning and reasoning, and a configured set of tools, Joule skills, document resources, MCP servers, or other agents run as subagents. The page states an agent executes inside the calling user's own security context through SAP Cloud Identity Services, and can be tried against a test conversation before deployment. That is the tool-and-turn-taking ground agent tooling covers, here built through Joule Studio rather than in application code.
Custom Joule SkillsCustom Joule SkillsA custom Joule skill is a workflow written to extend what Joule does out of the box for one specific business need, built and deployed through Joule Studio in SAP Build; the page states this is the supported way to extend Joule's built-in capabilities. Through Joule Studio a skill reaches SAP and external APIs via the destinations already configured in the BTP subaccount and Build environment, with the workflow itself versioned, monitored and deployable from the same tool.
Deploy, review, break, fix: Govern cloud transports with agility and AIDeploy, review, break, fix: Govern cloud transports with agility and AIFive BTP services in one delivery chain, as the abstract lays it out: a transport is triggered in SAP Content Agent Service, tested in SAP Cloud Transport Management, its failure is raised by SAP Alert Notification service for SAP BTP and remediated by a SAP Joule agent with SAP Automation Pilot, and SAP Cloud Logging keeps the history for root-cause analysis. The chain from alert to remediation is the operations automation concern; what the Joule agent decides on its own is not in the abstract.

Explaining SAP Joule for HR Business Users & Functional Consultants.Explaining SAP Joule for HR Business Users & Functional Consultants.Written for HR business users and functional consultants, this walks through how SAP Joule is provisioned on SAP BTP and wired into SuccessFactors: the Joule instance sits in a BTP subaccount, SAP Build Work Zone is created alongside it, and Identity provisioning syncs users from SuccessFactors into Build Work Zone while Cloud Identity Services authenticates the launch through an IAS tenant. It lists five prerequisites for the connection — a BTP global account, a Joule entitlement, Cloud Identity Service and SuccessFactors admin access, and the right personas — and notes that running BTP's booster adds the Joule permission to the SuccessFactors user's profile.santanuray_learner, published 2025-03-23
From intent to extension: Joule and the future of solution extensibilityFrom intent to extension: Joule and the future of solution extensibilityHow Joule turns natural-language intent into extensions across SAP Autonomous Suite: intent-based agent extensions, enriching the agents SAP delivers, packaging options for partners and what SAP calls a harmonised extensibility experience. The edges are to SAP Joule, which does the translating, and to Extensibility, the concern; the abstract names the directions and no feature that ships today.

Generate agentic workflows using SAP-managed n8n in Joule StudioGenerate agentic workflows using SAP-managed n8n in Joule StudioSAP-managed n8n inside Joule Studio generates a workflow from a business intent a developer states, and the workflow is then tested and deployed, consuming line-of-business application APIs, events and agents in SAP Business AI Platform: process automation with the workflow generated from intent, and agent tooling where the workflow calls agents. The generated workflow sends notifications to the Joule Work mobile app of SAP Joule, to Microsoft Teams or to Slack. SAP's abstract names the pieces and not how the generation or the n8n hosting works. A two-hour hands-on TechEd 2026 session (Tuesday 27 October, Berlin), presented by Rama Sulakshani Murari, Rumen Dimitrov, Seshadri Sreenivas Ramanarayanan and Venugopal Chembrakalathil, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.

How Redwood Software and SAP are shaping the next era of automation with Joule StudioHow Redwood Software and SAP are shaping the next era of automation with Joule StudioRedwood's Field CTO describes a tech preview where an SAP Basis administrator tells SAP Joule in natural language to pause background jobs and dependent Integration Suite iFlows for unplanned system maintenance; Joule acts as a control tower, triggering a pre-approved RunMyJobs workflow and asking for approval before the restart proceeds. The integration is built by publishing RunMyJobs operations to the SAP Business Accelerator Hub, securing access through SAP BTP with API keys and role-based permissions, and combining those actions into a skill inside Joule Studio's low-code design canvas.gmblom, published 2025-11-02
Inside Joule Studio runtime: Agent deployment and integrationsInside Joule Studio runtime: Agent deployment and integrationsJoule Studio runtime from the inside: the tools and services SAP manages to deploy, integrate, run, extend and operate agents at scale, and the integrations through the agent gateway and SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition. The edge is to SAP Joule, whose agents the runtime runs; the atlas reaches that runtime through @sap/joule-work-dev-cli-early-adopters, which deploys a solution to it, and the abstract names neither the CLI nor a service by name.

Joule and related AI offerings from SAP: One platform, many systemsJoule and related AI offerings from SAP: One platform, many systemsSAP Joule run across dozens of SAP systems: the SAP for Me portal, orchestration across systems, configuration and credential management, monitoring and tenant isolation are the topics SAP's abstract lists. It stays on the operating side and says nothing about building on Joule.

SAP’s compositional design system: Craft enterprise UIs with AI on the flySAP’s compositional design system: Craft enterprise UIs with AI on the flySAP's compositional design system is the engine behind the generated interface in Joule Work, the front of SAP Joule: SAP's abstract says AI assembles the UI at runtime from primitives and composites under a body of design knowledge, inside a brand-safe design system, and that the session covers the architecture that keeps the result consistent. A third shape of Generative UI beside the two the capability describes, since here the model composes the interface at runtime.
