Use two OData services in the same fiori application

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am extendind a standard fiori application which is based on a standard odata service.Requirement is to add additonal functionality to the application but it it is based on another custom Odata service .

Is it possible to integrate two Odata services in the same fiori application and call the methods accordingly.

yes you may have more than 1 oData Service where you read data from. The one thing to keep in mind would be to know how to distinguish the data from the 2 services in case you need to post transactions back to the service. Further, if you have scenarios such as a grid which is fed from one odata model and some controls in it such as a drop down, then make sure your model contains both end points.. you may be able to create named models or have multiple endpoints on a joint model.. 

long story short yes you may be able to have more than 1 service in an application.

Hi Sergio,

Thank you .

My question is more related to fiori architecture as such.In the fiori application there is a configuration.js file which has the refrence to the service URL.Incase i have to add another Odata service reference where and how do i add it.

it looks like it should be fine as the ServiceList object is an array. You should be able to enter a new serviceList Item object next tot he current one and then be able to access it via its name. I am not sure where the exact documentation for it may be but by looking at the object then it should.

Hi Sergio,

The Configuration.js file is part of orginal component and is not part of extended project.

In the extensions i do not see any option to add a new Odata service though there is an option to replace the service.
