Building an Attachment Upload and Download Solution Using UploadSetwithTable ControlBuilding an Attachment Upload and Download Solution Using UploadSetwithTable ControlThe successor control to UploadSet posts the file in one request by default, and against CAP that is wrong: the record has to be created first and the content put to it afterwards. The author states the two-step shape plainly and notes it may not apply to an ABAP backend, which is the kind of boundary that usually goes unsaid. Written during a proof of concept for a reusable attachment component, and it carries the problem they hit with the control.published 2025-03-13
Configure Journal Entry Posting Approval from Store Template in Build Process AutomationConfigure Journal Entry Posting Approval from Store Template in Build Process AutomationWalks through deploying SAP's Journal Entry Posting Approval template from the SAP Build Process Automation Store against an on-premise S/4HANA system that has no Secure Network Connection: destinations for S/4HANA via Cloud Connector, for SAP Document Management service, integration option to hold the approval's supporting documents, and for the BPA service and its SMTP mail. It then swaps the template's SNC action groups for basic-connection BAPI calls and deploys the approval's UI5 applications so the task lands in My Inbox, with a Desktop Agent registered to run the unattended document-check and document-post automations.published 2025-01-28
Agent access to your Fiori appSAP only
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
Give Your AI Agent Some Tools: Introducing the UI5 MCP ServerGive Your AI Agent Some Tools: Introducing the UI5 MCP ServerAnnounces @ui5/mcp-server, SAP's open-source MCP server for UI5 development, and walks through its initial six tools. get_project_info, get_api_reference and run_ui5_linter (which applies UI5 linter fixes) read the project's own version, manifest and code rather than an LLM's training data, which is what agent access to your code explains. create_ui5_app scaffolds a new JavaScript or TypeScript project, standalone or inside an existing CAP application, from templates with pre-configured OData model setups, which is generators.published 2025-09-03
SAP Fiori Tools Update – First Release of the SAP Fiori MCP Server for Agentic AISAP Fiori Tools Update – First Release of the SAP Fiori MCP Server for Agentic AIThe release announcement for the Fiori MCP server, placed as the step after the Project Accelerator: an assistant can create and edit Fiori applications directly rather than describing what a developer should do. The vendor's own framing, so read it beside the independent evaluation of the same servers rather than instead of it.published 2025-09-03

How to Use NPM Modules Like crypto-js in SAPUI5 Using UI5 Tooling ModulesHow to Use NPM Modules Like crypto-js in SAPUI5 Using UI5 Tooling ModulesWalks through adding ui5-tooling-modules to a SAPUI5 project on UI5 Tooling v3: installing the npm package crypto-js alongside it, then wiring a ui5-tooling-modules-task builder task and a ui5-tooling-modules-middleware dev-server middleware into ui5.yaml so the UI5 module loader can resolve it. A controller then loads crypto-js/sha256 through sap.ui.define and calls it like any other AMD dependency, with the stated limit that the pattern works only inside a controller or other AMD-style module, not through a top-level import or require().DakshKumarSingh, published 2025-09-04

LintingSAP and community
Building Secure SAPUI5 Applications: Best Practices for DevelopersBuilding Secure SAPUI5 Applications: Best Practices for DevelopersA developer-facing rundown of secure coding habits for SAPUI5 apps: typed bindings and custom formatters to reject bad input before it reaches a handler, encodeHTML() instead of rendering untrusted HTML, keeping tokens and URLs out of local and session storage, and CSRF token handling on the ODataModel. It sets up linting with ESLint and an eslint-config-ui5 rule set to catch unsafe DOM access, eval calls and unused imports as part of CI, alongside the same input validation instinct: reject invalid input early rather than trust the backend to catch it.Manisha_19, published 2025-12-10
Migrate your code with UI5 linter – Autofix has landedMigrate your code with UI5 linter – Autofix has landedUI5 linter v1.12.0 adds an initial autofix, reached with ui5lint --fix, and the post walks through it end to end: the tool first reports a deprecated global reference (sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel), then the fix rewrites it into the equivalent module import and local variable. This first version only handles that one class of deprecation — replacing deprecated globals with imports — with more fix types left for later releases tracked on the tool's GitHub roadmap.published 2025-03-19

Simple Table Maintenance in SAP Fiori Using UI5 Smart ControlsSimple Table Maintenance in SAP Fiori Using UI5 Smart ControlsStarts from SM30 and the table maintenance dialog it generated with almost no code, then asks what the equivalent is now. That framing is the value: a maintenance screen for a custom table was a solved problem in SAP GUI and is not an obviously solved one on Fiori, and the post works through what smart controls give you towards it.published 2025-02-11
The Complete Guide to Calling Actions in UI5 with Custom CodeThe Complete Guide to Calling Actions in UI5 with Custom CodeWritten because the documentation is thin and the samples sparse, and openly as a note to the author's future self — hand-coding an action call has become a rare task for anyone mostly working in Fiori elements, which is exactly why it is hard to look up when it comes round. Comes with a CAP sample project, so the service half is there too.published 2025-07-21

Adaptation Project: SAP標準Fioriアプリのフィルタ項目を必須入力へするための方法Adaptation Project: SAP標準Fioriアプリのフィルタ項目を必須入力へするための方法Walks through making a filter field mandatory on a standard SAP Fiori elements app (Manage Purchase Orders) without modifying it: an Adaptation Project created in SAP Business Application Studio adds a local OData annotation file that applies the Org.OData.Capabilities.V1 FilterRestrictions term — RequiresFilter and RequiredProperties on the Plant field — and registers it in manifest.appdescr_variant.json against the mainService data source. It also shows how to look up the target OData service, entity container and entity set through the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library and the service's own metadata.hironobu_nakayama, published 2025-10-19

How to Control the Visibility of CRUD and Custom Actions in Fiori Elements Based on AuthorizationHow to Control the Visibility of CRUD and Custom Actions in Fiori Elements Based on AuthorizationHiding Create, Edit and custom action buttons according to what the user may actually do — the join between the authorisation model and the annotations, which is where the two usually fail to agree and the UI offers something the service will refuse.published 2025-05-14
