How to use the SAP API Business Hub and APIs to connect to SAP S/4HANA
What is SAP API?
The SAP API Business Hub is a cutting-edge platform that gives organizations and developers access to the power of APIs. It enables instant access to a wide range of SAP APIs for interaction with their cloud and on-premises solutions, enabling users to build apps quickly and affordably.
Role of SAP API business Hub:
The SAP API Business Hub makes it simple to locate the best API for SAP S/4HANA systems. There is a wide range of content there, including knowledge and API documentation for (Representational State Transfer) REST/OData or SOAP APIs. The SAP API Business Hub online portal program facilitates the downloading and (partial) testing of APIs.
Depending on the type of API, the associated API descriptions are provided in either WSDL or so-called “Swagger” files (Web Services Description Language).
SAP S/4HANA and the SAP API Business Hub are supported by Denpro Technologies:
Denpro technologies Integration Suite (BIS) can use Web service, REST, or HTTP clients to call APIs from the SAP API Business Hub. During integration, a variety of formats like OData/REST, SOAP, and JSON are supported. In order to facilitate integration with SAP satellite systems, non-SAP systems, and all external connections from a single digital integration platform, Denpro technologies offers an independent integration platform.
As with earlier SAP ERP and database versions, Denpro Technologies fully supports SAP S/4HANA, guaranteeing the greatest possible investment protection. It is obvious that the SAP API Business Hub will offer more opportunities in the future to connect SAP with outside business partners. This might be helpful in a variety of cases, depending on the APIs that SAP is currently providing.
It makes a lot of sense to use hybrid integration with API Management, which provides a variety of extra options for both internal connections to non-SAP systems and external connections via APIs. With the aid of such a hybrid integration platform, the connection between SAP S/4HANA and the actual B2B/EDI solution (which communicates externally with business partners), for instance, can be converted from IDoc to APIs.
Support of All API interfaces for SAP S/4 HANA
All interfaces, including the SAP S/4HANA APIs currently available, are supported by Denpro technologies. Standard solutions for the new interfaces using predefined mappings and solutions will be accessible as soon as the necessary APIs are made available in the SAP API Business Hub.
As an integrating interface for S/4HANA in the SAP Public Cloud, the SAP HANA Cloud Platform Integration Service from SAP SCP is frequently used.
A Denpro technologies offers extensive SAP understanding and years of SAP collaboration experience. Since we already have our own SAP S/4HANA implementation set up, testing new API versions is a breeze. In addition, SAP S/4HANA is connected to both existing procedures and more contemporary, cutting-edge technologies via a hybrid integration platform (HIP). This provides our consumers with a high level of investment protection. Organizations have the option to advance their integration thanks to APIs that are future-compatible. Furthermore, functionality can be expanded outside with the help of useful API management tools.
