currently best kept mobile secret ….. SAP Content to Go
With SAP Content to Go users can mobilize any content available to them in a Fiori Overview pageby simply clicking on the option “Add to Mobile”.
Once they have registered their SAP Content 2 Go application
to the service the cards the users mobilized will show up in their application. The Card will show the same data and will use the same Fiori elements as the Launch Pad and update the data in the background. So, the user does not only have the current data available he has the latest Data available at any time anywhere as they are offline inside the application.
Users can also share any Fiori Object Pages from the Fiori Launch Pad. This works just like the Fiori Overview Pages.
Also here the Cards show just like in the Fiori Launch Pad.
With the SAP Content 2 Go Rest API any web application can be enabled to mobilize content with a few lines of Code. Anybody wanting to try this out you can do this by following the following tutorial: https://www.sap.com/germany/developer/tutorial-navigator/mobile-interactive-tutorials/content2go.html
Admins can define the Design of a single Card instance with HTML. The areas where the data should be filled in is simply defined by Handelbars or Mustache.
In the next tab the Admin can than match the data from the json response to the fields defined earlier in the HTML.
The result on the device will than show the data merged from the REST service in the design defined by the HTML.
Content to go provides the developers and admins various Card types to mobilize content from various backends.

Cards which are pushed from any backend will notify the user by default for each new Card added to the users collection. Cards are location aware and can notify the user if he gets close to an address on the card.

Hi Sami,
I don't see the 'Add to Mobile' button in my Fiori Launch Pad. Am I missing anything? What should I do to see this button in my launchpad?
I created new portal from my trial account and published it. I still dont see this button. You think the launch pad is not Fiori 2.x ? How do I ensure this?
Hi
