SAP BAS is asking for credentials continuously on running app with npm start

[jayeshsaini]

Our enterprise BAS is giving another issue of continuously asking credential while running a Ui5 project.

I have tried the BTP cred and Cloud Connector Destination credentials as well, but none works.

Not sure how to resolve the error.

Kindly refer to the below screenshot and see that the metadata is pending:

Upon cancelling that popup, getting 401 Unauthorized:

Hi @jayeshsaini

Most likely the 401 response is from the destination end point - the ABAP system.
Assuming you have a simple basic authentication, the credentials should be valid for that ABAP system and not BTP / SCC credentials.

You can verify your credentials when you work directly with the ABAP system and not via BAS

Thanks and regards

Thanks Roy.

The issue is now resolve. The user id which we had used for destination configuration was expired and so when we renewed the validity of the user id the issue got resolved. Thanks for the help.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

Does it happen only when you run the application?

Does the app configured working with xsuaa? you ca use the following help guide

Thanks, Avital

Hi avitalmargalit

Yes the destinations are configured as per the guide you shared. Still facing this issue from yesterday. It is to be deployed on ABAP so the UI5 application doesnot have xs-app.json and xs-security.json as created through SAP template.

Fiori application -> Ui5 freestyle application -> Ui5 application
