Creating Action Project Using SAP Systems (UCL)

[nipun_madan]

Introduction:

In this blog post, we delve into the process of creating an Action project leveraging SAP Systems (Unified Customer Landscape) to consume APIs from various SAP systems, including SAP SuccessFactors, SAP Ariba, and SAP S/4HANA Cloud.

Prerequisites:

• You've added an SAP system and then registered it to establish a connection between the SAP system and SAP BTP. For more information about adding a system, see Registering an SAP System.

• You've included your registered systems in a formation and selected Integration with SAP Build as the formation type under the General Information section and selected the subaccount where SAP Build Process Automation is subscribed. For more information about creating a formation, see Including Systems in a Formation.

Context:

Adding a system to the system landscape list in a global account of SAP BTP is essential for making it available as an API source for creating Action projects. To access the system's APIs that are exposed, you must register and include the system in a formation. Only then can you view all the APIs of the registered system.

Among the SAP systems available, there are options such as SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP SuccessFactors, and SAP Commerce Cloud.

Here are the step-by-step instructions to guide you through the process of creating a project using SAP Systems:

1. Navigate to the Live API Section: Begin by accessing the Live API section within your lobby project creation screen.
   
2. Select SAP Systems: From the list of available options, choose the specific SAP System that you intend to utilize for your project.
   

3. Choose Package: Once the system is selected, you will be presented with a list of packages associated with it. Select the appropriate package for your project.

   

4. Select API: After selecting the package, proceed to choose the API that aligns with your project requirements.

   

5. Metadata Screen: Upon choosing the API, you will be directed to the metadata screen. Review the provided information and click "Next" to proceed with project creation.

   

6. Create Project: Initiate the project creation process by clicking on the "Create Project" button.

   

7. Select Actions: Finally, select the desired actions for your project to further customize its functionality.
