SAP OData services - Rest API and Consume Salesforce API

🎉 Mastering SAP OData Services & APIs: A Comprehensive Online Course 🌐

Course Instructor: Zafar Karnal

Course Title: "SAP OData Services - REST API and Consume Salesforce API"

Course Overview:

OData (Open Data Protocol) is a powerful web protocol that allows seamless communication between SAP backend systems and various front-end applications, including UI5/Fiori or any third-party software like Salesforce, SAP C4C, CRM, or portals. This course is designed to empower you with the skills to create OData services, perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, work with batch requests, and more. You'll also learn to leverage REST API capabilities and integrate Salesforce API within SAP environments.

What You’ll Learn:

• Understanding OData: Discover how OData service acts as a bridge between the SAP backend system and any front-end application over HTTP(s).
• OData for Data Exposure: Learn how to expose SAP data with any customer software working on HTTP(S), enabling you to update data in the SAP system using ABAP.
• Independent Development: Gain insights into developing client and server components independently, thanks to OData's REST architecture-based approach.
• OData vs. Other Connectors: Understand why OData is a preferred method of communication over other approaches like IDOC, REST API, RFC/BAPI, and older SAP connectors such as Java or .NET connectors.

Advantages of Using OData:

• 💧 Lightweight & Efficient: OData is easy to use and access data quickly.
• 🔄 Flexible Data Formats: Get output in both XML and JSON formats.
• 🛠️ Web-based Methods: Perform all web-based methods like GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, and Query.
• ✅ Stateless Functionality: Each OData call is treated as a new call, ensuring no server-side data storage between calls.
• 🧐 SAP Framework Support: Test and develop OData services within the SAP OData Gateway framework before deployment.
• ✍️ Simplified Coding: Enjoy less coding with a complete framework for OData compared to traditional REST API development using resource handler classes.
