Navigating the Challenges of Named CAP Schemas in SAP BTP

Lessons Learned from a Printing Solution Project

Lessons Learned from a a recent project where we implemented a custom printing solution using SAP's Cloud Application Programming (CAP) Model on SAP BTP!

One of the unique challenges was enabling external parties to access the CAP schema via ODBC. To make this work, we needed to ensure that the schema name was user-friendly, rather than the cryptic name CAP generates by default.

In the post, I dive into:

  • How to explicitly set a schema name for your CAP application
  • Creating an external role for schema access
  • Enabling it all with Instance Mapping in HANA Cloud, within a SAP CI/CD and SAP cTMS environment

Check it out to learn how you can implement this in your own projects!
