SAPUI5 SuccessFactors extension running on SCP Cloud Foundry

[MichalUhlir]

Dear SAP community,

I was able to create SAPUI5 extension of SuccessFactors and run it in Neo Environment without any problems based on the tutorials available on web. Blogs or help.sap.com documentation.

I would like to run this extension in Cloud Foundry Environment, but unfortunately I was not able to find any proper guide or tutorial. Based on this blog I was able to deploy and run the application, but it is not properly connected to SF oData service. Configuration on SCP Cloud Foundry side is following this documentation.

When I open deployed app, I am getting the error, that oData metadata cannot be loaded.

Thank you for any hints!

Michal

Hi Michal,

Have you looked into the network tab on chrome developer tools to inspect which request is failing?

Pleas post additional information so we can better help. There is a high hance that the OData metadata isn't loading because the OAuth mechanism failed before the odata was called.

Ivan

Hello Ivan,

thank you for your reaction! Please see attached screenshot from console. The request of metadata is returning "Not Found".

The error might be related to some other error that has happened before. Please investigate the http traces.

Hi Michal,

How have you created the access between your UI5 application and the OData service from SSF?

Are you using the destination service defined on the cockpit or creating your own User Provided Service for this?

I think the easiest way to accomplish this task is to create a destination with OAuth2SAMLBearerAssertion authentication type - and configure it to retrieve the authentication for you.

Best Regards,
Ivan

Hi Ivan,

I am also facing the issue i.e., unable to load the metadata after deploying into Cloud Foundry my destination is Success Factors System. I defined the SF Destination in Connectivity in Cockpit(Connection Status was Established getting 301) and I have taken Basic Authentication. Could you please help what I was missing to load the metadata.
