Hello,
I am trying to create a simple application to approve or reject activities. For the purpose I created two function imports (Approve & Reject) in the Data Model of the oData service. I can access these imports successfully via the SAP Gateway Client and I think it all looks good on the server side.
However on my SAP UI5 Application, I am trying to send POST request to any of these services, but it doesn't work:
this.getModel().create("/Approve", oEntry, {
method: "POST",
success: function(data) {sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Success!");},
error: function() { sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Error!"); }
});
I see in the debugger that the post request is sent to /$batch instead of /Approve as I expected.
I guess I can use the standard REST Update function in order to accomplish the task, but I'd prefer to find a way to implement it this way.
So does anyone have an idea how can this be done?
Thanks,
Martin
Thank you Jun,
I tried that (also with explicit parameter names with the same result):
var oModel = this.getModel();
oModel.callFunction(
"/Approve", "GET", {"ACTIVITY_ID": "424242", "NOTE": "test" }, null,
function(oData, response) { sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Success!"); },
function(oError){ sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Error!"); }
);
However I get an error in browser console:
I double checked the $metadata of the service, but it looks good to me.
<EntityContainer Name="ZMY_SRV_Entities" sap:supported-formats="atom json xlsx" m:IsDefaultEntityContainer="true">
<EntitySet sap:content-version="1" Name="ActivitySet" sap:updatable="false" sap:creatable="false" sap:pageable="false" sap:deletable="false" EntityType="ZMY_SRV.Activity"/>
<FunctionImport Name="Approve" m:HttpMethod="GET" EntitySet="ActivitySet" ReturnType="ZMY_SRV.Activity">
<Parameter Name="ACTIVITY_ID" Type="Edm.String" Mode="In"/>
<Parameter Name="NOTE" Type="Edm.String" Mode="In"/>
</FunctionImport>
</EntityContainer>

Any idea what am I missing?
Thanks,
Martin
oModel.callFunction(
"/Approve", {"urlParameters": {"ACTIVITY_ID": "424242", "NOTE": "test" }, "success":
function(oData, response) { sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Success!"); },
"error": function(oError){ sap.ui.commons.MessageBox.alert("Error!"); }}
);how about this?
I tried that too - there is no difference.
Actually you already answered the initial question, so I will create a new post for this issue as it is a separate topic.
