ANNOUNCEMENT: Publication of SAP S/4HANA APIs on API Business Hub
As the digital core element of the Intelligent Enterprise, SAP S/4HANA is an integrated ERP system running on SAP HANA, available in the cloud and On-premise.
APIs and Business events are at the core of the SAP strategy to enable easy consumption and automation on top of SAP S/4HANA. In the last few years, we have invested heavily into an API First development strategy to provide more access to SAP S/4HANA Cloud and for third-party integrations through modern http-based APIs.
Customer success in the Intelligent Enterprise highly depends on our customer’s and partner’s ability to integrate and extend SAP S/4HANA based on modern technologies and open industry standards. As part of this effort, today we are delighted to announce the release of SAP S/4HANA On-premise APIs on SAP API Business Hub. Within the SAP S/4HANA 2020 API Strategy project, we were able to publish 290 modern HTTP-based APIs (150 OData and 140 SOAP APIs) including 178 Business Events. This increases the API coverage of the core business objects for SAP S/4HANA On-premise 2020 release. SAP S/4HANA is publishing APIs and Business Events which enables customers to build integration with third-party solutions and to build Apps and extensions on SAP Cloud Platform.
To support you in accelerating your project faster, SAP is providing you a step-by-step use cases to extend SAP S/4HANA on SAP Cloud Platform including:
- The prerequisites & required tools for extension
- How to explore APIs & Business Events
- How to configure & implement the required steps etc.
The SAP Cloud Platform Discovery Center is supporting ready-to-run projects called missions, which contains use cases, best practices and demos.
The following mission illustrates the step-by-step instructions on how to extend SAP S/4HANA On-premise on SAP Cloud Platform.
We are excited to see how our customers and partners will continue to innovate using SAP S/4HANA artifacts on SAP Cloud Platform.
Stay tuned for many more improvements we plan on implementing in the future.
Thanks for this blog !!
Question- Is S/4 HANA API's on API Business Hub applicable for customers who are on S/4 HANA Prem and can use these API's to integrate with 3rd party application with S/4 HANA Prem or is this just for extending S/4 HANA Prem on S/4 HANA Cloud ?
Hi Pramod,
sure, the APIs can be used for various integration use cases as well as for extension.

This is great. Will save huge effort on synchronizing the organization and master data with surrounding systems...
