how to get a file from other system (no SAP system) via Sap cloud platform?

[100869933276]

Dear,

for business reason we d like to get in our system SAP an external file ( XML format) and retrieve this file via SAP Cloud platform.

So, system A will create a file XML that will be available (accessible via FPT) and system B (SAP) has to get this file and read the file XML.

can someone tell me which service i have to use and if there is any manual for something similar?

Hi..

For transferring a file from FTP/SFTP to SAP system via CPI, you have to create Proxy interface (of type Service Provider) in SAP with appropriate WSDL structure of the file, this will read the incoming file from CPI and then you can process it however you want.

In CPI, use SFTP adapter to read the file and then transfer to SAP using SOAP channel. This will be straight forward if SAP system is cloud based. If not I would think you already have cloud connector to establish connections between CPI and SAP system.

Thanks

thanks for your answer, very useful.

we d like to make something easier, treat the file XML that we get from the Sender directly in SAP, it means that we have already a report in SAP that is able to read this Xml. so, the file will be transferred from the sender to the receiver and will be available in our server SAP without change for the moment.

so, we d like to know which connection we should use at the end part to connect easily SCP to SAP server( in the print screen i selected Odata, but there are something else that we can use? )

Hi - Is it FPT or FTP?

If its FTP, then SAP has FTP adaptors on Business Technology Platform (earlier called as SAP Cloud Platform). Look at this blog - https://blogs.sap.com/2020/07/08/cloud-integration-connecting-to-ftps-servers-using-the-ftp-adapter/

Hope this helps you.

Thanks, Manju
