Connect SAP Cloud Platform to Your SAP Gateway Demo System Account (ES5)

1. Log on to SAP Cloud Platform and click Enter Your Trial Account.

   

2. Click on the trial tile to navigate to your trial subaccount in the SAP Cloud Platform cockpit. If you are using your own subaccount, you can select it instead.

   

In this step, you’ll create connectivity between SAP Cloud Platform and the SAP Gateway Demo system account.

1. In the left navigation panel, click Destinations under Connectivity.

   

2. Click New Destination.

   

3. Add the following destination properties:

   Important: If you haven’t already created a user in ES5 as explained in the prerequisites above, please do so now and follow the steps in this topic: Create an Account on the Gateway Demo System.

   Field	Value
   Name	ES5
   Type	HTTP
   Description	SAP Gateway ES5
   URL	https://sapes5.sapdevcenter.com
   Proxy Type	Internet
   Authentication	BasicAuthentication
   User Name	Your ES5 Gateway user
   Password	Your ES5 Gateway password

4. Make sure that the Use default JDK truststore checkbox is checked.

5. Enter the following Additional Properties depending on your scenario. Click the New Property button each time to add a new property.

   If you are not sure which ones to enter, enter all of them.

   Field	Value
   WebIDEEnabled	true
   WebIDESystem	Gateway
   WebIDEUsage	odata_abap
   sap-platform	ABAP (enter this property manually as it is not available in the dropdown list)
   sap-client	002
   HTML5.DynamicDestination	true (enter this property manually as it is not available in the dropdown list)

   Note that SAP Business Application Studio reuses SAP Web IDE properties. In this way, the destination configuration as well as the migration from SAP Web IDE to SAP Business Application Studio, is much simpler.

   For more information about these properties, see Connect to ABAP Systems and Configure (HTML5) Destinations.

   Your screen will look like this:

   

6. Click Save.

7. Click Check Connection to make sure that everything is working.

   

   You’ll get confirmation that the connection is established.

   

   This is not an error. The check connection operation tries to open the ES5 URL and gets redirected to the login page.
