[former_member242213]

Hi Experts,

I have below doubts.

1. Is there any standard SAP UI5 mobile application without using Fiori Launchpad?
2. Can we build an e commerce application using SAP UI5?

Please suggest on this. Thanks in advance.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

1. All sapui5 app are responsive. You can build Hybrid or Native mobile APP using HCPms. For hybrid please check this -

2. Yes. this is a demo App by SAP - Shopping Cart

Hi Prathyusha,

It is not necessarily all the UI5 apps needed to be displayed via launchpad. After designing and developing UI5 application, you will have configure FIORI launchpad designer to get the app on boarded to FIORI launchpad. If you do not want to have it part of launchpad, you can always access it via browser URL. But then user login and access restriction has to be controlled in the app directly.

Yes of course, you can design e-Commerce application in SAPUI5.

Hi Sabarinathan,

Speaking of 'browser URL': is there a way to configure security in HCP cockpit- after deploying the app from webide to HCP - so the application could be viewed by the public without necessarily having to logon to HCP?

Hi Mustafa,

When it comes to HCP cockpit, its a different picture altogether. If you are deploying the application under HTML5 applications in HCP cockpit, it can be accessed out of office network, if your HCP is accessible publicly(Either via reverse proxy or with public IP).

In that case, yes you can access the application publicly. But if you're deploying the application in launchpad under HCP cockpit, then it has to be accessed via FIORI launchpad URL of HCP.

Hope I have not confused you.

Hi Sabari,

Yes in fact I know the difference between a standalone app and container dependent app where bootstrapping is taking care of by container/launcher. After building my web app on Web IDE I attempted to deploy it to Hana Cloud Platform so I can share it with my friends who are not members of SAP development environment (the public). I tried to use the application URL generated by HCP via my mobile browser just to discover that access is not allowed without logging in to my hana cloud account. So all things considered; is there a (configuration) way to generate application URL starting with [http://....] and not [http(s)//....]    That is my question

You can.

You may try to configure de "Authentication" parameter in the .xsaccess file.

Something like this:

"authentication" : null
