SAP S/4HANA Cloud is an ERP solution that enables organizations to manage business functions such as finance, human resources, procurement, and sales.

Set up a connection

Instructions

Enter a clear and distinguishable name.

Throughout integrator.io imports and exports, you will have the option to choose this new connection. A unique identifier will prove helpful later when selecting it from a list of the connections in your account.

API type * 

Choose your SAP S/4HANA account API type:

  • Cloud Public Edition: Access standard, SAP-released business objects and services to integrate external applications securely using supported and stable APIs.

  • Cloud Private Edition: Access internal or custom SAP services to enable specific or advanced integrations that are not part of the public API set.

  • On-Premise: Connect directly to your SAP S/4HANA on-premise system to integrate with internal processes and data within your organization’s infrastructure.

Public ODATA API type:

API version * 

Select your SAP S/4HANA account API version (v2 or v4).

Host *
