Signavio Integration with Solution Manager 7.1 (SP12) ( Solman Connector ) – How To
Hello
You are interested in the integrations of your solution Manager with the Signavio editor but during your integrations you have difficulties with the setting up your signavioconnector propoertes file.
User Guide for integration you can find in the Signavio online help documentations where you have detail descriptions how to implement the link between your SAP Solution Manager and Signavio SAP Solution Manager Connector 7.1.
My bog will help you just with the additional explanation of the User Guide sections which I’ve found not clear during my integration effort.
In the User Guide online documentation starting on the sections 5. there is difference in SP12 screens . It differs from the online User Guide documentations !
Sectiuon 5 part:
“
………
5.The Signavio SAP Solution Manager 7.1 Connector uses the BSI Enterprise Services (SOAP web service) to communicate with the SAP Solution Manager. This web service has to be enabled and configured before the connector can work properly:
a.Logon to your SAP GUI and start transaction se80.
b.Search for the package BSI_SERVICE_API:
……..
in SP12 there is different screens for the BSI enterprise Services therefore please follow my blog in order to make your integrations properly.
If you will follow User guide in section f. (f. Open the tab Transportation Settings and find the URL of the service binding. Please store the URL for later usage when configuring the connector. ) you will find that URL from the section f. is missing:
In SP12 BSI Enterprise Services (SOAP web service) looks a bit different. In order to get requested URL you should go
In SOAMANAGER follow steps:
on the next screen you will get URL you are looking for:
The above URL should be later used in your solmanconnector PROPERTIES files in the signavio HOME directory on your solman host. My URL example is following:
http://<mysolmanhostname>:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/flv_10002A111AD1/bndg_url/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/bsiprojectdirectroyinterface/100/signavioconnect/binding_1?sap-client=100
in order to fill out your solmanconnector properties file you must derive two parameteres from your WDSL URL Link:
solman.bsiservice.binding = /100/signavioconnect/binding_1
solman.bsiservice.endpoint = /sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/bsiprojectdirectroyinterface
To find out what is wrong with your solman connector the best place where to look is in the log file of the signavio HOME installation directory. The log file is located in the log directory!
IMPORTANT !!
in order to be able to sync your signavio editor content with your solman projects after each restart you solution manager server – you have to repeat step 8) from the Signavio SAP Solution Manager Connector 7.1. user guide!!!
………………………….
8.Run the setup:
In this step the connector establishes an Oauth connection to the Signavio Process Editor and asks for the a Signavio user to authenticate against the Signavio Process Editor.
Proceed as follows:

Hello Boris,
first of all thanks for that helpful blog, because we are using also SP12. I have another issue as well, maybe you were facing the same problem. In the log file I get the following error, when I start the connector setup in the Internet Explorer and trying to do the authorization (and the authorization is not opening):
2015-05-20
16:32:20,050 INFO (SslHelper.java:223) - Loading KeyStore
connector.keystore...
2015-05-20
16:32:20,071 INFO (OAuthClientServlet.java:49) - {"downloaded

Do you know which certificate has to be added to the keystore?
Thanks in advance,
Katja
