FIORI App - CAP API or OData from S4 HANA

[sreenivas1117]

Hi Experts,

We are implementing a UI5/FIORI App with BAS on BTP and deploy it on BTP HTML5 repo.

In this case, Is it okay to consume OData service from my OP system(via Cloud Connector) (or) Do we need to develop a CAP API for OData service on BTP and consume that CAP API in UI5 App?

Thanks in advance...

If your users have also a user in the S/4HANA on Premise system then I see no need to not consume the OData Service directly.

Thank you so much for your reply, Gregor.

That means, if the user's user-id is not there in the SAP system, we must go-through the CAP API development and consuming it?

Thanks

If you have the requirement to restrict which user sees what information you need a server side middleware.
