  First-party client library search for the SAP Ariba API surface. The headline
  finding is an absence: SAP publishes 114 REST APIs and 144 SOAP web services for
  Ariba and ships NO first-party client SDK for any of them in npm, PyPI, Maven
  Central, NuGet, RubyGems, crates.io or pkg.go.dev. Integrators are expected to
  call the OAuth-protected gateway at openapi.ariba.com directly, or to use SAP
  Integration Suite / Cloud Integration content. The packages SAP does publish
  under the Ariba name are UI frameworks and sample code, not API clients - and the
  Ariba UI framework has not shipped a release since 2018.

    A search of npm for "ariba" returns mostly unrelated packages published by
    individuals whose given name is Ariba. Only the entries below were verified as
    SAP-published or SAP-sourced.
packages:
  - name: '@aribaui/core'

    official: true
    api_client: false
    kind: ui-framework

    description: Ariba UI core module providing basic set of API and services.
    note: >-
      First-party: the package homepage in the npm registry metadata is
      github.com/SAP/angular-metaui, an SAP-owned repository. This is the Ariba UI
      (MetaUI) Angular framework for building Ariba application screens - it is NOT a
      client for any SAP Ariba REST API. Last published 2018-10-23, nearly eight years
      before this probe; every REST API in the SAP Ariba catalog post-dates or has been
      re-versioned since. Treat as abandoned.
  - name: '@aribaui/components'
    registry: npm
    url: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@aribaui/components
    official: true
    api_client: false

    published: '2018-10-23'
    source_repo: https://github.com/SAP/angular-metaui
    description: Ariba UI widgets and layouts based on primeng.
    note: Same release train and same abandonment signal as '@aribaui/core'.
  - name: '@sapui5/sap.fe.ariba'
    registry: npm
    url: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@sapui5/sap.fe.ariba
    official: true

    version: 1.151.0
    published: '2026-08-06'
    description: SAPUI5 Library sap.fe.ariba.
    note: >-
      First-party SAP, actively maintained, but it is a SAPUI5 Fiori Elements library
      for rendering Ariba screens inside SAP UI applications - not an SDK for calling
      the Ariba REST APIs.

      SAP-published sample applications for extending SAP Ariba. Not a registry
      package - there is no published artifact, so version/published are null by
      necessity rather than by omission.

      SAP-published SAP BTP application that extracts SAP Ariba data via the
      Analytical and Operational Reporting APIs. The closest thing SAP ships to a
      reference client, but it is an application, not a library.
