Hi all
I followed the tutorials about ABAP RESTful Programming Model on https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/abap-environment-restful-programming-model.html and I have a question about consuming the service in the ABAP environment.
For example, I've created an application with the transaction SE38 and would like to consume the ABAP RESTful service, that I've created. Is it possible to consume it or it can be only consumed via OData?
Thanks

Hi Anujit,
You can't create a service using SE38.
For a service in OP system, you will have to create OData service using CDS, SEGW or RESTful programming model. Then, it can be exposed using Cloud connector and can be consumed in SCP ABAP system or any other cloud environment. Yes, you need OData service to expose any service from OP system.
This is what i think your question is.

I think the question was more about reading and manipulating the Business Object directly from ABAP. Therefor we now have the "Entity Manipulation Language (EML)".

Consuming Business Objects with EML should be the right tool for that right?
Thanks

Correct, try it out (and please report back, haven't played around with it yet).
