Can I use REST API's with mobile services

[perage]

Hi!

I have developed an iOS app that uses an OData service from S/4 HANA. I also have a few direct calls from the app to third party REST API's.

I would like to decouple those API's from being constructed inside the app, and call a Mobile Service or Cloud integration service instead, so that I can solve any updates to the REST API on the cloud side. Using the offline storage in MS would also be a great benefit.

• Which options are available for REST within Mobile Service?
• Can I somehow use the connection from the app to call a Cloud Integration API via Mobile Service or Directly?

Take a look at:

specifically the -nodb option:

then you can implement methods in the generated handler classes to delegate to the REST backend system.
