    Hi Vineeth,


    The team responsible for your SAP is the only one that can tell you how to access their service. There are different ways how a service can be exposed in SAP, for example, you can have an inbound ABAP proxy or a BAPI published in the SoaManager, you can have a service exposed via an middleware service such as SAP Process Orchestration. There are so many ways of how an SAP can be exposed.


    From your side, the minimum that you need to start is an endpoint and access details and then you can beginning to create your integration.


    I hope this information helped you.

    Hi Vineeth,

    The way how your SAP is exposing the service for you consume that will drive your Appian implementation.

    I would say that the easy way would be if you have a Proxy exposed in your SAP (ABAP Proxy, BAPI, etc), in this case from Appian’s perspective it would be a normal integration call, and you could proceed with your request creation after receive the return.

    Do you know how the service is exposed in the SAP side?
