How to update a Project in SAP Web IDE from ABAP Repository?

[Marian_Zeis]

Hello Experts,

i imported a Application from SAPUI5 ABAP Repository that i initily created in Eclipse.

Now, when i submit changes to the application back in Eclipse, is it possible to update the Application in SAP Web IDE?

I just can import the application again in Web IDE in a other folder

The only possibility is for me using a git repository.

The way to do it is using Git.

However please note that an Eclipse project may have a different structure than projects supported in Web IDE, so you can't really work in Web IDE and Eclipse side-by-side.

I mean, you can clone the Git repo and add your code but you will not be able to preview the app in Web IDE and perhaps perform some more actions.

Please see this blog for adjusting your Eclipse app into Web IDE project's structure:
