Set Up Integration Suite Trial

Using this scenario, you design and execute an integration flow that reads product details from a public product catalog (WebShop) for a given product identifier. Product details include data such as the product name and price, for example. To accomplish the scenario, you use SAP Integration Suite, and in particular, its capabilities Cloud Integration and API Management.

You use Cloud Integration to design and deploy an integration flow. When you have finished designing, you use the API Explorer tool of API Management to expose the integration flow endpoint as an API.

• You also define how to access the API in terms of authentication by assigning a dedicated predefined policy template.
• Using this policy template, you define API access based on the OAuth client credentials grant method.
• Finally, you use API Management to call the API and get the product details in a response.

WHERE TO START: If you are new to SAP BTP or SAP Integration Suite, skip this note and continue with the tutorial.

If you have already activated Cloud Integration (Process Integration) or API Management services in your existing trial account, we recommend you to perform one of the following options:

Option 1: If you are unable to activate Integration Suite service in an existing subaccount, create a New Subaccount and then proceed to Step 3. For a new subaccount, you need to assign entitlements by adding service plans and the quotas. For more information, see Configure Entitlements and Quotas for Subaccounts.

Option 2: To continue with the same subaccount, unsubscribe from Cloud Integration and API Management services, and then proceed to Step 3.

If you have already activated Integration Suite in your existing trial account, proceed to Step 4. You can consume only one Integration Suite tenant per trial account.

1. In your web browser, open the SAP BTP trial cockpit.

2. Navigate to the trial global account by clicking Enter Your Trial Account.

   

3. Choose the region that is closest to you. Click Create Account to create a subaccount.

   

4. Choose Continue.

   

5. From your global account page, choose the trial tile to access your subaccount.

   

1. Select Services > Instances and Subscriptions.

2. Choose Create.

   

3. In the New Instance or Subscription dialog, choose Integration Suite from the list of services.

   If Integration Suite is not visible in the Services list, you need to assign Integration Suite Trial entitlements. To assign entitlements, see Manage Entitlements on SAP BTP Trial.

   • In the tutorial referred above, after Step 3.5, there is a list of available services on the left pane.

   • Filter for Integration Suite service and select the service.

   • Select the service plan, add it to your subaccount, and continue with this tutorial.

4. Choose the default plan which is trial and click Create.

   

5. You are subscribed to the service now. Click Go to Application in the Integration Suite overview page. Now you are directed to the Integration Suite Launchpad.

   

IMPORTANT: Ensure that you unsubscribe from the standalone services (like Open Connectors, Cloud Integration or API Management services) if you have already subscribed to it. If the standalone subscription exists, you will be unable to activate respective capability via the Integration Suite.

Navigational Steps: Go to Service Marketplace, search for the service name and click unsubscribe.

1. In the Integration Suite Launchpad, choose Add Capabilities to activate the capabilities offered by Integration Suite.

   

   For this tutorial, you must select Design, Develop and Operate Integration Scenarios and Design, Develop and Manage APIs click capabilities.
   Click Next.

   

   You do not have to select anything here. Click Next.

   

   Click Next.

   

2. Click Activate to provision the selected capabilities.

   For some capabilities, you would be given a choice to select additional functionalities that you need to choose based on your business requirement.

   

   The activation may take a while and you will notice the dialog shown here.

   IMPORTANT: Before you proceed to Step 4.5, please wait for all the capabilities to be activated.

   

   IMPORTANT: From the Provisioning application you can navigate back to the Integration Suite Launchpad by choosing the Integration Suite button on the header.

3. After successful activation, you can view the activated capability tiles on the launchpad. Click on the relevant tile to access the capability.

   

   To know more about resources offered by the Integration Suite Launchpad, see Working with Integration Suite Launchpad.

   To access each capability’s tile, you must assign capability-specific roles which is explained in the next step.

In this step, you execute a booster that will assign you the necessary roles to access and use the activated capabilities, and create service instance of Process Integration.

A Booster is a set of guided and interactive steps that enable you to select, configure, and consume services on SAP BTP to achieve a specific technical goal. In this case, the Integration Suite booster will help you with assigning roles and creating service instances.

A service instance defines how a service of SAP BTP (in our case, the Process Integration service) can be called from a remote component. In the context of Cloud Integration, a service instance is the definition of an OAuth client. The service key generated out of the service instance contains credentials and other information that is required at a later step to call the integration flow.

1. Navigate to the overview page of your SAP BTP global account.

2. Choose Boosters on the left navigation pane.

3. From the list of boosters, look out for the tile Enable Integration Suite. You can start the booster execution by choosing Start on the tile.

   

   Alternatively, you can open the tile, read the information, and choose Start in the booster page.

   

4. In the Configure Subaccount tab, select your subaccount, organization, and space in which you have subscribed for Integration Suite service. Choose Next.

   

5. In the Select Activated Capabilities tab, select Design, Develop, and Operate Integration Scenarios and Design, Develop, and Manage APIs. Choose Next.

   

   IMPORTANT: Make sure that you select only the capabilities that you activated in step 4.

6. In the Review tab, check your selections and choose Finish.
   You can see that the booster is being processed

   

7. Upon successful execution of the booster, choose Go to Application. Also, choose Access Service Instance(s) to view the service instance and service key.

   

You can also manually do the role assignment and service instance creation without using the booster. For more information, see Configure User Access and Create Service Instances.

1. In the Integration Suite Launchpad application, choose Manage Capabilities tile.

   

2. Click on the URLs of all the activated capabilities and verify if you can successfully access them.
