Hi Joseph

If you mean an application running on your local machine, then no. Cloud Connector specifically enables connectivity from apps and services in your SAP Cloud Platform subaccount to your on-premise systems.

That's true, it is a local implementation I have. You are sure it is not possible to open a VPN channel from my computer to an Cloud Connector (or something like this)?

I think it is somethong that SAP should think of.

Hey guys,

for dev purposes only, I recommend to add a reverse-proxy. I did this by using SAP APIM. I did deploy a proxy related to a cloud connector. APIM is able to pass through and I am interacting with APIM's URL from visual studio code.

Also do recommend adding this APIM URL as destination to your app and use the environment variables on VS code.

This does not resolve your issue, but it would be a security issue (and architecture remodeling) for SAP if they would give you the opportunity to talk to the Cloud Connector targets from not Cloud Foundry subaccounts.

Hi Joseph ,

Yes , Using destination service in cloud foundry it is possible but you have to setup local configuration for destination instance in your project.

Thanks,
