Set Up Mock Server

If you don't have access to a SAP S/4HANA system but still want to create an application consuming an OData service with SAP Business Application Studio, you can make use of this mock server application. It contains some entities of the SAP S/4HANA API_Business_Partner OData service (A_BusinessPartner & A_BusinessPartnerAddress) with sample data.

To install the mock server, you need an SAP BTP subaccount with Cloud Foundry Environment and 256 MB of Cloud Foundry runtime.

Also you have to create a destination to the mock service in the same subaccount as your SAP Business Application Studio subscription.

Create Workspace in SAP Business Application Studio

1. Open the SAP Business Application Studio and create a new Dev Space using the Full Stack Cloud Application type

   

2. Switch to the tab where you have opened SAP Business Application Studio. In the tabs, choose View and select Find Command.

3. Search for CF Login and select CF: Login on to Cloud Foundry.

   

4. Enter CF API endpoint

Hint: You can find your API Endpoint in the overview section of your SAP BTP account → Cloud Foundry Environment

5. Enter your SAP BTP account Email and Password when prompted.

6. Select your Cloud Foundry Org

Hint: You can find your Org Name in the overview section of your SAP BTP account → Cloud Foundry Environment

7. Select the space name. Once you have selected the Org and Space, you would log in to Cloud Foundry in SAP Business Application Studio.

Hint: You can find your space name in your SAP BTP account → Cloud Foundry → Spaces

8. Now, you have successfully created a workspace and pointed to our desired SAP BTP Org and Space.

Build and Deploy

1. In the menu select Terminal → New Terminal. In the terminal go to the projects folder

      cd projects

2. Clone the mock server GitHub repository:

      git clone -b mock https://github.com/SAP-samples/cloud-extension-ecc-business-process.git

3. Choose File in the menu on the top and then select Open Workspace from the dropdown menu.

4. Open the project by choosing projects > cloud-extension-ecc-business-process and choose Open.

5. In the project folder right-click on the mta.yaml file and select Build MTA Project.

   

6. When the build was successful, you will see a new folder mta_archives in your project with the Mockserver_1.0.0.mtar file. Right-click on that file and select Deploy MTA Archive.

   

7. The next step is to create a destination to the mock server

Set Up Destination in SAP BTP

1. Open your SAP BTP account and navigate to your Subaccount.

2. Choose Connectivity in the menu on the left then choose Destinations → New Destination.

3. Again, choose Destinations → New Destination and enter the following information destination:

   • Name: bupa
   • URL: https://<mock_srv_url>/api-business-partner
   • Authentication: No Authentication

4. Choose New Property and enter the following properties and Save your input:

   Key	Value
   HTML5.DynamicDestination	true
   WebIDEAdditionalData	full_url
   WebIDEEnabled	true
   WebIDEUsage	odata_gen

Test the Mock Server
