Using the Neptune Software AppCache for SAP Mobile Platform

In the latest support package of Neptune Application Designer we introduced a new way of integrating Neptune Applications with SAP Mobile Platform (Cloud or on premise) using Neptune AppCache.

You can read about the cool features of that functionality here.

If you are lazy and rather would like to watch a video than read about it – here it is

The only steps you need to do is copy the NEPTUNE_APPCACHE application and change some settings in the AppCacheSetup

In your new application change these three parameters to your own SMP setup:

1. AppCache.enableSMP = true;
2. AppCache.smpApplication = ‘NameOfApplicationInSMP’;
3. AppCache.Url = ‘YourSMPUrl’;

Now you need to export your application using the Export to Phonegap transaction, note that you don’t need to use the SMP login, URL or application here. The AppCache script will take care of it

Zip the Directory folder and upload to the Adobe build service

Scan the QR code and install the app

If you have activated the CAPTCHA code in the SAP Mobile Platform you will be challenged with this after you have authenticated your credentials to prove you are a human being

Before you successfully enter this your application connection will be pending for validation in SMP

And once you enter a correct CAPTCHA together with authenticated user credentials your application connection will be registered

Congratulations! You now run your Neptune Application through the SAP mobile Platform and have achieved enterprise grade security on your app combined with the great AppCache features.

Happy coding!
