What is…?
- SAP Web Integrated Development Environment (or SAP Web IDE) is a next-generation cloud-based meeting space where multiple project stakeholders can work together from a common web interface – connecting to the same shared repository with virtually no setup required. It includes multiple interactive features that allow you to collaborate with your colleagues and accelerate the development of your HTML5/UI5 applications.
- SAP HANA Cloud Platform is the in-memory Platform-as-a-Service offering from SAP, which enables customers and developers to build, extend, and run applications on SAP HANA in the cloud. With flexible subscription models and optional services for apps, database, and infrastructure, it provides instant access to the full power of SAP HANA.
This is the complete landscape of our model: let’s spend some words about it.
- SAP Web IDE is in the cloud: it reads the destination we define in the SAP HANA Cloud Cockpit. You may have several destinations for different scopes.
- After reading a destination, SAP Web IDE looks for the virtual system specified and tries to get the real system by examining the Access Controls specified in the SAP HANA Cloud Connector installed on the user’s local machine.
- Any Access Control in the SAP HANA Cloud Connector points to one or more resources in the physical external system. This system can be an ABAP system or any other with OData capabilities.
Prerequisites
- You need a valid account on the https://account.hanatrial.ondemand.com portal (you can use your SCN password!).
- You will also need your SCN password. If you don’t know it, here you can reset it.
- In the next part you will install the HANA Cloud Connector. This software, at moment, is only available for 64bit platforms, so before you continue with this guide ensure you are in the proper condition. Please check also the prerequisites of it.
- Be sure to have your Internet browser up to date.

Hi Claudia,
I set up my IDE last year during the first FIORI course on open SAP.
I am now logging in after a while.While trying to unit test and application, it asks for a password, i do not know which password it is.How can i reset that?
Thanks,
Sachin
it could be the backend password. I have no idea if this system/user is still available 🙁
Hi Claudia,
We are trying to setup our Web IDE on a HANA XS local installation. Unlike in the Cloud version we cannot find a "HANA Cloud Platform Cockpit" where everything (e.g. Git Service) is turned on/off and configured.
Our Basis Admin who set everything up found quite a lot of reading material but Hana Platform Cockpit is no where mentioned and "HANA Cockpit" seems to be different.
Best regards,
Denis
