Evaluating SAP’s new MCP servers: UI5, CAP, and Fiori tools in practiceEvaluating SAP’s new MCP servers: UI5, CAP, and Fiori tools in practiceSomeone trying SAP's three new MCP servers rather than repeating the announcement. It sets the official positioning first — MCP as the bridge from coding assistants to SAP tooling across Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Cline and Claude Code, with best-practice scaffolds and BTP-aligned guardrails — and then reports what using them is actually like. The rare kind of post that tests a vendor claim.published 2025-09-04
Integrate Document Information Extraction into UI5 applicationIntegrate Document Information Extraction into UI5 applicationUploading an invoice from a UI5 application and getting the extracted fields back on screen, with a destination pointing at the Document Information Extraction API and a Refresh button polling until the job finishes. The polling is the honest part: extraction is asynchronous, and the post does not pretend otherwise. From 2022, so the service has since been renamed and the API moved, but the shape — upload, poll, map the result — is the shape it still is.published 2022-05-31
Integrating SAP Document Information Extraction (Document AI) with SAP CAP – Step by StepIntegrating SAP Document Information Extraction (Document AI) with SAP CAP – Step by StepThe forward direction, in full: a PDF or scan arriving at a CAP service, sent to Document Information Extraction, and the fields coming back into the model. Long, and step-by-step in the literal sense — the service binding and the request shapes are all written out.furkan5, published 2025-10-09
A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 1/3A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 1/3The concepts before the code: what the GPT model and its API actually offer, and what the finished chat application looks like — personalities included. Written in the weeks when the ground was moving under it, and the post carries its own change log to prove it: GPT-3.5 added on 1 March, GPT-4 on 15 March, and an admission that a series planned as two posts became three.published 2023-02-22

A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 2/3A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 2/3The backend: CAP with TypeScript, the entities holding chats and personalities, and the service that talks to the API. This is where the streamed completion and the repositories behind the handler come from, which is the part of the sample still worth lifting even though the model access has since been superseded by AI Core.published 2023-02-24

A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 3/3A ChatGPT-like chat app built with modern SAP technologies (CAP, SAPUI5) – Part 3/3The SAPUI5 frontend of the sample, and mostly an argument for writing UI5 in TypeScript: ES imports in place of sap.ui.define, a class with real private members in place of the underscore convention, and the service types generated from the CDS model copied into the UI package, so one IChats interface types the OData object the controller reads. The second half is structure — a formatter class and a singleton LayoutManager called from the XML view through core:require, a confirmation helper taking a callback, a dialog class resolving a promise, a generic createEntity<T> on a service class — all of it to keep every controller under 100 lines. What it says about arranging a UI5 app holds whatever model sits behind the chat; the tooling around it is of its date, and the post calls UI5's TypeScript support experimental.published 2023-02-27

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

Using HANA Cloud’s "VECTOR_EMBEDDING" Function in CAPUsing HANA Cloud’s "VECTOR_EMBEDDING" Function in CAPEmbeddings generated inside the database rather than fetched from AI Core or an external model — a Q4 2024 HANA Cloud function, used from CAP. The shift it describes is where the embedding step lives, which changes what has to be deployed and what has to be called.published 2025-03-02
