Resolving date serialization issues when using an external OData v2 service with CAPResolving date serialization issues when using an external OData v2 service with CAPDates coming out of an external OData v2 service in a shape CAP does not expect, and what to do about it. A narrow bug report with a fix, and the kind of thing that costs an afternoon if nobody has written it down.pieterjanssens, published 2020-07-09
SAP HANA XSA pt. 2 – Smart variants, OData v4 -> v2SAP HANA XSA pt. 2 – Smart variants, OData v4 -> v2Smart tables and smart variants against an OData v4 service, with the v4-to-v2 conversion that the smart controls needed at the time. The second part of an XSA series, written from Tokyo in a summer the author mentions.Gunter, published 2020-08-27
New SAP Cloud Application Programming Model Sample for Many-to-Many Relationships and Fiori AnnotationsNew SAP Cloud Application Programming Model Sample for Many-to-Many Relationships and Fiori AnnotationsIntroduces SAP-samples/cloud-cap-hana-swapi, a CAP sample rebuilding the abandoned Star Wars API as a six-entity data model (Films, People, Planets, Species, Starships, Vehicles) chosen for its many-to-many, bi-directional relationships and its use as a Fiori Draft deep-editing test case. The author used CAP's OpenAPI functionality to generate both the Swagger UI test tool and entity diagrams for the data model, alongside the OData services and Fiori preview UI.published 2020-12-21
E2E: SAP Cloud Platform Internet of Things to SAP Analytics CloudE2E: SAP Cloud Platform Internet of Things to SAP Analytics CloudDevice data from ingestion to chart, with CAP occupying the middle: a CDS-defined persistence on HANA Cloud, and an OData service published from it for Analytics Cloud to consume live. The interesting choice is that CAP is used for the model rather than for business logic — there is barely any.Gunter, published 2020-08-31
Developing Business Services with Cloud Application Programming(CAP) Model in SAP Business StudioDeveloping Business Services with Cloud Application Programming(CAP) Model in SAP Business StudioA step-by-step build of a CAP Node.js service in SAP Business Application Studio: a CDS schema for banks, customers, accounts and transactions using compositions, associations, enumerated types and the @assert.unique constraint, followed by authorization layered on with @restrict and @requires annotations and mock users assigned the authenticated-user and Manager roles in .cdsrc.json. Custom event handlers registered through @sap/cds (srv.before/srv.after) and sample HTTP requests round out the example.Ranjith, published 2020-05-27
First Java Cap ApplicationFirst Java Cap ApplicationA step-by-step walkthrough of a first CAP Java project: com.sap.cds:cds-services-archetype scaffolds the initial Maven project, and the domain model is then rewritten in the db folder with entities, the cuid and managed aspects, associations, compositions and a CodeList, so a hand-coded event handler serving a single entity gives way to a service that CAP's generic persistence handling serves without custom code. It deploys that model to SQLite for local development — cds deploy --to sqlite, then a Spring profile pointing at the generated database file — and ends by adding an index.cds so the model and service can be published as a reusable npm module.bruce_wang3, published 2020-12-08

CAP: Consume External Service – Part 3CAP: Consume External Service – Part 3Built to work around CAP limitations at the time — OData-only external services, no custom headers, no complex OData queries — the post walks through cdse, the author's own module that resolves a named destination from the CAP project's configuration and calls axios directly, so a handler reads the same way whether it is tested locally against a raw URL or deployed against SAP Cloud Platform's Destinations service. A 2022 update at the top of the post calls it obsolete, since the CAP framework has since addressed the limitations it set out to work around. The walkthrough of cdse resolving a destination and switching between a local credentials.url and an SCP destination, including pulling credentials from VCAP_SERVICES when the lookup fails locally, still holds as a worked example.published 2020-07-27
Event-driven Extensions for SAP SuccessFactors on SAP BTP – Connecting the DotsEvent-driven Extensions for SAP SuccessFactors on SAP BTP – Connecting the DotsWalks through an event-driven extension for SAP SuccessFactors: Automated Configurations registers the SuccessFactors system against an SAP BTP account with an integration token, and a SuccessFactors custom integration then pushes events, such as an employee joining or leaving, to a topic in Event Mesh that a CAP application subscribes to. The SuccessFactors APIs themselves are downloaded as EDMX files from SAP API Business Hub and imported into the CAP project, the same EDMX-import path behind service integration, so CAP generates the client used to call them. A reference application, RunSmooth, ties Automated Configurations, Event Mesh and CAP together end to end.Former Member, published 2020-08-12
CAP: Consume External Service - Part 1CAP: Consume External Service - Part 1Builds a CAP Node.js service from scratch that consumes the public NorthWind OData V4 service: cds import turns its EDMX metadata into a CSN model under srv/external, and a CatalogService projects Products from it with a custom READ handler that runs the request through cds.connect.to('NorthWind'). Shows the same projection working two ways — against a CSV mocked under srv/external/data with the <service>-<entity>.csv naming the framework expects, then against the real service once credentials.url is added to the CAP configuration and @sap-cloud-sdk/http-client is installed — and defers routing that connection through the Cloud Foundry Destinations service to the next post in the series.published 2020-05-26

The Future of Continuous Delivery for SAP Cloud SDK and SAP Cloud Application Programming ModelThe Future of Continuous Delivery for SAP Cloud SDK and SAP Cloud Application Programming ModelA direction note on the Continuous Delivery Pipeline that Cloud SDK and CAP projects were expected to start from, written by someone on the inside as its future was being decided. Dated 2020, so read it for what was being weighed rather than for what to run — and as one of the few places the reasoning behind a tooling direction was written down at all.published 2020-11-23
