Mar 09, 2018 at 01:01 AM | 172 Views

Hello,

We are looking for a right API that can be used to create/maintain Accounts & Contacts in Hybris Marketing 1709 onPremise (Initial & Delta). We are replicating bulk/delta from S4HANA. We have the below APIs and the problems that we face as well listed below. Any expert advises please to pick the right API if anyone had done something similar before?. Or to copy one of the below and make a 'Z' and adjust accordingly?

a. CUAN_BUSINESS_PARTNER_IMPORT_SRV -> Restrictions on Create, https://help.sap.com/viewer/e68e4c8c856d429b85c2a7370c3553ae/1708%20YMKT/en-US/bc4c014df706472ca38b963f63e9c6fa.html

b. API_MKT_CORPORATE_ACCOUNT_SRV & API_MKT_CONTACT_SRV -> Restrictions on create, https://blogs.sap.com/2017/10/16/new-api-odata-v4.0-syntax-in-hybris-marketing-from-1709/

c. CUAN_IMPORT_SRV -> Restrictions on batches in terms of error handling -> https://help.sap.com/viewer/e68e4c8c856d429b85c2a7370c3553ae/1708%20YMKT/en-US/af8b4f54d6682b5be10000000a4450e5.html

d. CUAN_BUSINESS_PARTNER_IMP_SRV -> Restrictions on batches in terms of error handling & Delta should be send FULL -> https://help.sap.com/viewer/0f9408e4921e4ba3bb4a7a1f75f837a7/1711%20500/en-US/e9129a7963664047b836c05648f65fbe.html

    Hi Renjith,

    If I understood correctly and you're on 1709 (not SP1 from 2018) - then the API-services (API_MKT_CONTACT,...) are out - in this release they can only read data.

    Would it be an option for you/your customer to upgrade to 1709 SP1? Because then, the API-Services would definetely be a good choice.

    With 1709 there's no service that can handle delta-updates - you always have to send the full data when updating smth.

    And in terms of the batch restrictions you mention - for CUAN_IMPORT, because of a deeply structured payload using an Import Header, you can still send multiple entities (contacts, accounts) with one request.

    Best regards,

    Nico

    Hi Nico,

    Thanks for your answer and we exactly are in the same situation where SAP even released some notes (copied below) to correct the APIs but those are for 1709 SP1. So we are weighing the options if we could do an upgrade.
