The SAP data source is one of the integration methods that allows you to connect to external systems on the Kuika platform. Using your SAP system's connection information, you can directly retrieve data from SAP or send data to the application you developed on Kuika.

You must have a suitable subscription plan to use the SAP data source integration. You can upgrade your subscription to access more advanced integration options.

This training content consists of the following topics:

• Adding an SAP data source connection
• Anatomy of the SAP modal
• Configuring SAP connection settings

Add a Data Source Connection to Your Application with SAP

1. Log in to the Kuika platform and open the project you will be working on from the Apps screen.

2. Open the Data Sources module. Here you can view existing data sources and add new ones.
3. Click the + icon next to the Sources heading.
4. Select the SAP option and enter a name for your data source.
5. Complete the process by clicking the CREATE button.

Anatomy of the SAP Modal

A. Top Menu

• Name: You can name the connection settings.
• CANCEL and CREATE Buttons: You can cancel or save the changes you have made.
• Test Button: You can test the connection to verify the accuracy of the information you entered.

B. Connection Settings (Use Connection String)

You can connect to the SAP system in two different ways:

1. With Connection String
   
   • AppServerHost
   • SystemNumber
   • User
   • Password
   • Client
   • Language You can enter information such as this in a single line as a connection string.

Example:

AppServerHost=myserver;SystemNumber=00;User=admin;Password=1234;Client=100;Language=EN;

2. Manual Fields
   
   • AppServerHost: SAP server address
   • SystemNumber: SAP system number
   • Authorization: Username and password
   • Client: SAP client number
   • Language: Session language (e.g., EN, DE, TR)‍
   • Parameters: Key-Value pair to add additional parameters

Configuring SAP Connection Settings

1. If you enable the Use Connection String feature, you can enter all the information as a single-line connection string.
2. If you disable it, you must fill in the connection information in separate fields.
3. If necessary, you can add custom parameters using the Add Parameter option.
4. After entering the information, click the Test button to verify your connection.
5. After a successful connection, click the CREATE button to save your data source.

By following these steps, you can integrate your SAP data source into your Kuika applications. You can define the connection either using the Connection String method or manual fields and customize it according to your needs.
