How to make HTTP Requests to External APIs with ABAP | URL Method and Communication Arrangement

In this video you learn how to make HTTP Requests to External APIs in ABAP. We will cover three approaches, the HTTP Communication via URL, the HTTP Communication via Communication Arrangement and the HTTP Communication via Destination Service. Since the last one is deprecated we implement just the first two live in this video in the SAP BTP ABAP Environment.

Create and Deploy SAP Fiori App to ABAP Environment in SAP BTP | Load Mode | IAM | Business Catalog

In this video we create a SAP Fiori app based on an OData V4 service that we created in the Video “Let’s Code ABAP, Restful Application Programming Model” We customize this YouTube Tutorials app to automatically load the data from the database and to display it in the UI once the app is launched. And then we will deploy the App to the ABAP Environment in SAP BTP and create an IAM App and a Business Catalog for it. The Tools and services we are going to use in this video are BAS, the SAP Business Application Studio and Eclipse.

SAP Communication Arrangement and ABAP Client | Outbound Calls with Authentication | Global Tax

In this video we show you how to setup a SAP communication arrangement to make outbound calls to external apis that require authentication and to call these APIs with ABAP. We demonstrate this live to you in a real world example, the Global Tax ABAP client, that requests global indirect tax rates from “Global Tax as a Service” which is our backend service that runs in the Google Cloud. Eventually you will see how you easily can convert the received data with ABAP JSONPath into data formats that can directly be used in S/4 Hana or in SAP BTP.
