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 comprise data such like the product name and the price, for example. To accomplish the scenario, you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration Suite, and in particular its capabilities Cloud Integration and API Management.

You use Cloud Integration to design and deploy the integration flow. When you have finished designing these tasks, 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.

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

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

   

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

   

4. Choose Continue.

   

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

   

1. Select Subscriptions > Integration Suite.

   If the Integration Suite tile is not visible under Subscriptions, you need to assign Integration Suite Trial entitlements. To assign entitlements, see Manage Entitlements on SAP Cloud Platform Trial.

   • In the tutorial, 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 and add it to your subaccount.

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

   To access the capability tile, you must assign capability-specific roles to the user. Continue with the next step.

In this step, you assign users to the trial account for them to access and use the activated capability.

1. Go to Security > Trust Configuration and click sap.default.

   

2. Enter the user’s e-mail address and click on Show Assignments to see the role collections that are currently assigned to this user. Then click Assign Role Collection and select relevant roles based on the activated capability.

   IMPORTANT: For this starter scenario to work, assign the role collections only for Cloud Integration and API Management capability.
