Hi Gayathri
The link for “How to develop your custom adapter” (https://blogs.sap.com/2017/07/27/sap-cloud-integration-adapter-development-using-maven-project-perspective/) is dead.
Noticed also that all the content for the author, Gopalkrishna Kulkarni is no longer around.
Is it possible for you to recover these contents?

Hi Eng,
This blog is pulled back for a temporary time by the author for some capabilities updates. It will be available back shortly. I did not remove the link so that we do not loose referencing it during this interim time.

Do we have a naming convention of HCI developing?
and where is it?
Hi Misher, I found this suggestion only: https://www.integration-excellence.com/naming-conventions-hci/
There's also this blog on best practices, including Naming Conventions

Hello Gayathri,
Thanks for your blog. I don't see any RFC sender adapter. It is posible to implement an escenario RFC (From an ECC)->HCI->SOAP ?
If is not, what workaround do you suggest?
Thanks,
Regards,
Leonel.
Hi Leonel,
Currently we do not have a RFC sender adapter. One workaround is to pull data from ECC by polling at regular intervals. You can have an integration flow with Timer step --> Content Modifier(for the RFC function input) -> Request Reply -> RFC receiver adapter .The Request Reply step can then be connected to the required next steps that are to be run on the response obtained from RFC adapter. Hope this will work for you.
thanks,
Gayathri
Hi Gayathri Narayana, team,
We noticed there was a reorganization around SAP Blog Communities. In the new structure we cannot find a community for Cloud Platform Integration anymore. Is there any plan to create a new one for this? If not, what would be the community we should follow to get new CPI content?
Until last week, that was the link we were using
https://www.sap.com/community/topic/cloud-integration.html
Thank you,
