Handle multiple API Keys in SAP Cloud Integration

2024-07-03T09:06:29.593000+02:00

Hi,

We are integrating with an external application, which has provided us company specific API key to post data using their API. For Ex : If we are posting data about Company A there is a specific API Key A. If Company B then API Key B.

I can think of doing this using Value mapping but I would like to know if there is a better approach which is secure as well. Please suggest

Best Regards

CSV lookup using CPI

2024-07-04T02:34:47.838000+02:00

Hello All,

I have a CSV on an SFTP server that contains Employee's ID and their date of birth. Is it possible to do a lookup in CSV from CPI? E.g. send EmployeeID as request and get date of birth as a response.

I know I can create another iflow that reads this CSV regularly into a hashmap and do lookup there. However, I was trying to configure this ina single iflow, if possible.

Thanks,

activate IDOC service path in S4 for IDOC receiver connection with CI

2024-07-04T16:05:37.946000+02:00

Hi Experts,

We are working on SOAP -> IDOC scenario in Cloud Integration(SAP Integration Suite).

As a pre-requisite, we are trying to establish the IDOC connection from "Cloud Integration" to S4.

But we notice that activation of IDOC service path ‘/sap/bc/srt/idoc’ in SAP backend is needed.

But, our BASIS team declines our request stating that it is not allowed as per our organization hardening guidelines. They are asking to find an alternative way to achieve the required functionality.

Could you please let me know the alternate options available to achieve the requirement without additional efforts like interface redesign etc., Thank you!

How to handle exceptions in Odata receiver adapter in SAP CPI

2024-07-08T07:55:49.683000+02:00

Hi All,
We have a requirement to make multiple calls to an SAP EAM OData API. We would get a request with a set of Ids from source system then we have to split those ids into batches and make call to SAP EAM OData API with each batch so here the issue is if the data doesn't exist for any one of the batch the OData API is throwing exception and the entire flow is getting failed and not getting proceeded for the next batch.
Let us assume we get 10 Ids from source and we are splitting them into a batch of two ids each so we have to make 5 calls to the OData API. Here for the first two batches there are details in OData API and it returned the details for those Ids, for the third batch of Ids there are no details in OData Api so its throwing exception with 400 Bad request and the flow is not getting failed and not getting proceeded for the next 2 batches where the data exists in OData API for those set of Ids.

In HTTPS adapter we have an option to handle the failures as shown below

If we uncheck this we can route the exception messages to a different route and we can handle

Can someone help me how to handle the above-mentioned exceptions in OData receiver Adapter

Thanks & Regards

PDF character conversion problem cloud integration cpi

2024-07-10T12:29:25.907000+02:00

hi,

I created a flow on the integration suite that receives a .pdf file as input

I made a call with postman sending the pdf:

I put the flow in trace and when I modify the body, and add a text then the pdf changes format.

I downloaded the body at the beginning of the call, and it is like this (see line 15 of notepad):

with a content modifier, I added the text "test" at the beginning of the body, and the format of the pdf changes.

practically in line 16, the string "ÿØÿà" has been modified with �

Here save the body (the pdf format is ok):

here I modify the body, the format of the pdf changes (as in the screenshot above with �)

How can I make additions in the body but keep the same format as the PDF I had at the beginning?

Thank you

Error in ODATA Request - Integration Suite

2024-07-11T11:49:53.125000+02:00

Dear experts,

today I have encountered the following problem in the integration suite.

In the following artifact: "Replicate Generic Data from SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to SAP ERP or SAP S4HANA Using the OData API" I get an error, even though the integration suite does say the message was processed succesfully.

The log in the monitoring tells me the following error:
LastError = java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet.releaseConnection() of a null object loaded from local variable 'requestGet'

What can I do to fix this? This is in the demo environment...

I am thankful for any help!

Ariba Sender Adapter in Cloud Integration not fetching Purchase Orders

2024-07-18T08:11:03.267000+02:00

Hi all,

We have a requirement to integrate Ariba supplier portal with SAP via Cloud Integration. There are 2 scenarios

1. Fetch orders from Ariba supplier portal and send to SAP ECC
2. Post invoices from SAP ECC to Ariba Supplier portal

We are using Ariba adapter in both the scenarios.

For posting invoices, I am able to do that using Ariba receiver adapter and invoice is reflecting in Ariba supplier portal. But while fetching orders using Ariba sender adapter, the iFlow is in Completed status but no orders are being pulled and there is no error in Message Monitoring.

I would like to know if anyone has used Ariba sender adapter to pull Purchase orders from Ariba portal and faced similar issue.

Thank you

SAP BTP Services usage quota restriction

2024-07-19T21:00:43.870000+02:00

Hi Team,

We have a few queries regarding restricting the quota for Integration Suite and Cloud Foundry:

1. How can we restrict the number of messages per integration tenant?
2. How can we restrict the memory(GB) per cloud foundry organization? Currently, the entire available global memory quota is up for use.

Please advise on how to manage quota usage effectively to prevent unintentional usage of our CPEA credits.

Thank you.

Missing custom header in a ProcessDirect stream

2024-07-24T16:14:56.222000+02:00

hi community,

I am trying to configure in a content modifier inside message header some constants, which I would like to be able to read later when I call up another stream with the ProcessDirect connector.

I have created two streams, the first:

which has a timer and a content modifier with two headers set, and the ProcessDirect connection.

The second one:

with a content modifier that tries to take the two headers passed from the previous stream.

From the deployment you can see that the headers are not present, so how do I pass headers/properties from one stream to another when using ProcessDirect?

Thank you
