Create a Transport Destination and Configure the SAP Integration Suite Transport Landscape

Create a transport destination in the administrative subaccount in the SAP BTP source account using the credentials of the service key of the SAP Content Agent instance on the target subaccount. Then configure the SAP Integration Suite transport landscape in SAP Cloud Transport Management service using the transport destination.

Prerequisites

Scenario Overview

In this tutorial, you are back in the SAP BTP source account, in the central administrative subaccount used for SAP Cloud Transport Management service.

You configure a transport destination so that SAP Cloud Transport Management knows about the target endpoint of the deployment process. This is usually the deploy endpoint of the service whose content is to be transported. When SAP Content Agent is used for deployment, this is the endpoint of SAP Content Agent in the target account. The transport destination is used to pass the transported integration content to SAP Content Agent on the target subaccount, and SAP Content Agent will use the CloudIntegration destination to import this content.

You configure the transport landscape in SAP Cloud Transport Management service. This includes transport nodes as representations of the source and target endpoints of the deployment processes in the landscape, as well as transport routes to connect the transport nodes. In this tutorial, you create a source node representing your SAP Integration Suite source subaccount, and a target node representing your SAP Integration Suite target subaccount. In the target node configuration, you assign the previously created transport destination pointing to SAP Content Agent in the target subaccount.

Scenario Overview

  • Step 1

    This step assumes that you’re running the tutorial in the SAP BTP Trial account. If you have an enterprise account, open SAP BTP Cockpit in your enterprise account in the subaccount that’s subscribed to SAP Cloud Transport Management service.

    1. To access SAP BTP Cockpit of your trial account, go to your SAP BTP Trial landing page and choose Go To Your Trial Account. (The name of the button may vary.)

    2. In this tutorial, you will use the Central Services subaccount that’s subscribed to SAP Cloud Transport Management service.

  • Step 2

    The transport destination defines the endpoint of the SAP Content Agent subscribed in the target account. This destination is assigned to the target node in SAP Cloud Transport Management service. The name of the destination is not fixed.

    Make sure that you have the details of the service key of the SAP Content Agent instance in the target subaccount at hand that you created in Set Up the SAP Integration Suite Target Subaccount.

    1. In the Central Services subaccount, choose Connectivity > Destinations (1), and choose Create (2).

      Create Destination to Target Subaccount 2
    2. In the Create New Destination dialog, choose From Scratch (1), and Create (2).

      Create Destination to Target Subaccount 3
    3. In the Create Destination window, enter details for the following fields (1), and choose Create (2):

      Keep the values of fields not mentioned in the table unchanged.

      Field Value
      Name Enter a name, for example: CAS_on_target
      Description For example: Content Agent on Target
      URL Enter the value of the url from the details of the service key of the SAP Content Agent instance in the target subaccount that you created in Set Up the SAP Integration Suite Target Subaccount. For example: https://content-agent-engine.cfapps.us10.hana.ondemand.com
      Authentication Select OAuth2ClientCredentials.
      Client ID Enter the value of clientid from the uaa section of the service key details.
      Client Secret Enter the value of the clientsecret from the uaa section of the service key details.
      Token Service URL Enter the value of url from the uaa section of the service key details and append /oauth/token to the URL. For example: https://87654321trial.authentication.us10.hana.ondemand.com/oauth/token
      Create Destination to Target Subaccount 3
    4. The destination was created.

      Create Destination to Target Subaccount 4

      You can test the destination by displaying its details, and choosing Check Connection. However, a successful check result doesn’t guarantee successful deployment. We recommend that you run a test transport after completing the entire configuration of the transport scenario. This helps ensure that you’ve correctly completed all configuration tasks and have all necessary authorizations.

    In the "Transport Integration Content Using SAP Cloud Transport Management Service and SAP Content Agent Service" scenario, you need to configure the transport destination between which entities?

  • Step 3

    Perform this step in the SAP Cloud Transport Management UI.

    1. In the Central Services subaccount, choose Services > Instances and Subscriptions (1). To open the UI of SAP Cloud Transport Management service, click on the link or the icon (2).

      Set up the transport landscape 1
    2. The UI opens in a new browser tab or window. The first time you open the service, the home screen is empty. To configure the landscape, select Landscape Visualization from the navigation on the left.

      Set up the transport landscape 2
    3. Start by creating the transport node that acts as the logical representation of your SAP Integration Suite source subaccount, here DEV_NODE. To do this, choose the + icon (1). On the Create Node dialog, enter details for the following fields (2-3), and click OK (4):

      You can keep the values of fields not mentioned in the table unchanged.

      Field Value
      Name (2)Enter a name, here: DEV_NODE
      DescriptionThis field is optional. For example: SAP Integration Suite source (development) node
      Allow Upload to Node (3)Select the checkbox.
      Set up the transport landscape 4
    4. The DEV_NODE is created and is now visible on the canvas. To create the transport node that acts as the logical representation of your SAP Integration Suite target subaccount, choose the + icon.

      Set up the transport landscape 5
    5. For target nodes, select the following details that are relevant for the transport and the deployment of the content in the target subaccount (1-3). Afterwards, choose OK (4).

      You can keep the values of fields not mentioned in the table unchanged.

      Field Value
      Name (1)here TARGET_NODE
      Description This field is optional. For example, SAP Integration Suite target node.
      Content Type (2) Select the type of content that is transported. For SAP Integration Suite, this is Multi-Target Application.
      Destination (3) Select the destination that points to SAP Content Agent in the target subaccount. Here, this is CAS_on_target.
      Set up the transport landscape 6
    6. The target node is created and is also visible on the canvas. To create a transport route to connect the two nodes, choose the connector icon.

      Set up the transport landscape 8
    7. On the Create Route dialog, enter a name for the transport route, here CPI_DEV_TARGET (1), select the source node DEV_NODE (2) and the target node TARGET_NODE (3), and click OK (4).

      Set up the transport landscape 9

      The transport route is created.

      Set up the transport landscape 10

    You’ve configured the transport landscape. When you export content from your SAP Integration Suite source subaccount, the content is automatically forwarded from the DEV_NODE to the TARGET_NODE. Once it’s in the TARGET_NODE, you can decide when to import the content into your SAP Integration Suite target subaccount.
