Set Up SAP Build Apps (with Booster) on SAP BTP Trial Account

SAP BTP offers a booster that automatically sets up all the things you need to start using SAP Build Apps, including:

• SAP Build Apps
• Roles
• Cloud Identity Service
• Trust between custom identity provider and your subaccount

1. Go to your global account.

2. Select Boosters, search for sap build apps, and click the booster tile.

   

3. Click Start.

   

4. The booster will check your entitlements, and likely will give a warning. You can ignore these.

   

   Click Next (bottom right).

5. Select Select Subaccount, and click Next.

   You will not be able to select Create Subaccount because your trial global account is limited to one subaccount, unless you deleted the subaccount automatically created when you created your trial account.

6. The booster will automatically select the one subaccount, so there is nothing to do on the Configure subaccunt screen.

   Click Next.

7. On the Add Users screen, you are automatically giving the apprpriate roles so there is nothing to do here.

   Click Next.

8. On the Review screen, click Finish.

When everything is installed, you will see the following:

SAP Build Apps requires that users be part of a custom identity provider, and to log in to SAP Build Apps using this identity provider.

One of things the booster did was to create a new identity provider for you. But you will have to activate your user on that identity provider.

After running the booster, you will get an email to activate your account on this new identity provide.

Click the button to activate your account, and follow the instructions for creating a password for this new custom identity provider.

When you are done you will see a new browser tab with the administration UI for managing users and authorizations for this identity provider. There is nothing to be done on this screen.

In the cockpit of your subaccount, go to Services and Instances.

Click on SAP Build Apps (or the little icon) to view the SAP Build lobby.

You should now see SAP Build Apps.

In subsequent logins, you may be presented with 2 identity providers to log in with. SAP Build Apps requires the custom identity provider, so select the identity provider that is NOT Default identity provider.

When you do login to SAP Build Apps, use your password that you created for the custom identity provider.
