Connector package documentation

1. Setting up HTTP/SOAP Client SAP ECC

1.1 Steps

In the Alumio Dashboard, go to Clients → SOAP Clients. Create a new SOAP Client.
Select SAP ECC SOAP Client as the prototype of the SOAP client.
Fill in the WSDL content.
Select the SOAP version
Select the HTTP Client.
You can optionally change the SOAP headers.
Save the SOAP Client for use.

2. Subscribing to Entities from SAP ECC

2.1 Steps

Go to Connections → Incoming, create a new incoming configuration, and select SAP ECC Subscriber as the subscriber.
Select the method you want to subscribe from SAP ECC.
Add any request parameters needed to subscribe to the entity (optional).
Select the SAP ECC SOAP Client to use
You can optionally add a transformer to transform the request parameters into something you will request from SAP ECC.

2.2 General Concept

We follow SAP ECC documentation on building this connector so you can easily use the connector based on SAP ECC API Reference

Method

It’s the method you want to subscribe from SAP ECC. Please refer to the entities in Management APIs from the SAP ECC API Reference page.

Request Parameters

These are the parameters you can provide to get the needed entity based on SAP ECC API Reference. Please look at the example below on how to fill the Request Parameters field when subscribing using getCustomerAddresses.

Input Transformer

Any transformers set here will be executed after the Request Parameters are loaded. So, you basically can add any transformer to provide and transform the request parameters into anything you need, either as path parameters and/or as query parameters of an entity.

SOAP Client

It’s the SOAP Client configuration or prototype you will use to access SAP ECC.

3. Publishing Entity to SAP ECC

3.1 Steps

Go to Connections → Outgoing, create a new outgoing configuration, and select SAP ECC Publisher as the publisher.
Select the Method that you want the publisher to do with the data.
Select the SOAP Client entity you want the data to be published.
You can also optionally add any transformers to transform the data into anything you need before submitting it to SAP ECC.
Also, you can use a Response validator to validate the respond

3.2 General Concept

Like the subscriber, the publisher has similar methods on how to use it. The difference is the payload that will be submitted by the publisher originating from the data (from routes, from transformers in outgoing configuration), though you can also add or modify payload using the Request Transformer.
