Do you need to connect your SAP River RDE to an external GW system? Check hereafter how you can achieve this.
Let's suppose your want to use the OData services provided by the system sapes1.sapdevcenter.com. This is a public GW server: you can get more information and register to it by going to the page Getting started with the SAP Netweaver Gateway Service Consumption System
Since this is public, you can connect to it without using the HANA Cloud connector:
all you have to do is to create a new destination in the account.hanatrial.ondemand.com environment as follows:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Name | <your_destination_name> |
| Type | HTTP |
| Description | <your_destination_description> |
| URL | https://sapes1.sapdevcenter.com:443/sap/opu/odata |
| Proxy Type | Internet |
| Cloud Connector version | 2 |
| Authentication | NoAuthentication |
Add also the following additional properties:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| RDEEnabled | true |
| RDESystem | ES1 |
| RDEUsage | odata_abap |
| TrustAll | true |
You should get something like this:
There are two things which you need to pay special attention to:
1) do not forget to put the port number 443 in the URL string for this server, because, currently, it's not automatically inherited by the system from the protocol type.
2) do not forget to specify the additional property TrustAll = true. This will allow you to avoid using the certificate keystore for this destination, even though it will reduce the overall security.
That's all!
