Build a Micro App for SAP Mobile Cards using Boosters

SAP Mobile Cards enables you to share data from virtually any back end to iOS and Android devices in a mobile-friendly format. Mobile Cards enable companies to quickly create simple, yet highly valuable, quick-win apps.

The process of creating Mobile Cards is now simpler with the use of boosters. You can now select, configure, and consume services using a set of guided interactive steps.

Let’s use boosters to build a wallet style mobile app that includes sample Basic and Sales Order cards.

• The basic card is used to understand card functionality and features.
• The sales order card can be used by a sales manager to view sales details on the go.

Let’s get started:

1. Go to SAP Cloud Platform Trial and click Logon.

    Note: If you don’t have an SAP Cloud Platform Trial account, follow this tutorial.

2. Choose Enter Your Trial Account.
