Forward Navigation to the Message Monitoring SAP Fiori App

The Message Monitoring app is the next-generation message monitor of SAP Application Interface Framework, based on SAP Fiori, bringing you an ultimate experience. It will be a frequently asked question how to navigate to the Message Monitoring app from another app for a certain interface or message. In this blog post you can find the answer.

For more information regarding this new feature, see New Message Monitoring features with SAP S/4HANA Cloud 2008 shipment.

Forward Navigation to a certain interface in the Message Monitoring

In order to navigate to a certain interface in the Message Monitoring from another app, you have to call the Intent-Based Navigation: Use Semantic Object ‘AIFMessage’ and Semantic Action ‘startMessageMonitoring’, and the following mandatory or optional parameters.

Parameter Name Parameter Value Comment
NS your namespace Mandatory
IFNAME your interface name Mandatory
IFVER your interface version Mandatory
STATUS E, S, W, I, C

Optional

(Only one status supported)
FROM

any DateTime of type Edm.DateTimeOffset

(e.g. 2020-11-01T00:00:00Z)

 Optional
TO

any DateTime of type Edm.DateTimeOffset

(e.g. 2020-11-14T23:59:59Z)

 Optional

Here is a sample code for navigating to a certain interface in the Message Monitoring app from the frontend:

// navigate to message monitoring app to check AIF interface /AIFT CUST_WS_I 00001 in a specified time range
var oIntent = {
    target: {
        semanticObject: "AIFMessage",
        action: "startMessageMonitoring"
    },
    params: {
        "NS": "/AIFT",
        "IFNAME": "CUST_WS_I",
        "IFVER": "00001"
    }
};
oIntent.params.FROM = "2020-11-01T00:00:00Z"; // replaced by a variable containing the FROM date in your case
oIntent.params.TO = "2020-11-14T23:59:59Z"; // replaced by a variable containing the TO date in your case
var oCrossAppNav = sap.ushell.Container.getService("CrossApplicationNavigation");
if (oCrossAppNav) {
    oCrossAppNav.toExternal(oIntent);
}

Here is a sample code for navigating to a certain interface in the Message Monitoring app from the backend:

* navigate to message monitoring app to check error messages in AIF interface /AIFT CUST_WS_I 00001
DATA:
lt_parameters  TYPE tihttpnvp,
ls_parameter   LIKE LINE OF lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'NS'.
ls_parameter-value = '/AIFT'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'IFNAME'.
ls_parameter-value = 'CUST_WS_I'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'IFVER'.
ls_parameter-value = '00001'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'STATUS'.
ls_parameter-value = 'E'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
cl_lsapi_manager=>navigate_to_intent(
 object = 'AIFMessage'
 action = 'startMessageMonitoring'
 parameters = lt_parameters
 navigation_mode = 0 ).

Forward Navigation to a certain message in the Message Monitoring

In order to directly navigate to a certain message’s detail in the Message Monitoring from another app, you have to call the Intent-Based Navigation: Use Semantic Object ‘AIFMessage’ and Semantic Action ‘startMessageMonitoring’, and the following parameters. This forward navigation to a certain message’s detail is available only in 2102 delivery of SAP S/4HANA Cloud or later.

Parameter Name Parameter Value
NS your namespace
IFNAME your interface name
IFVER your interface version
MSGGUID your message guid

Here is a sample code for navigating to a certain message’s detail in the Message Monitoring app from the frontend:

// navigate to message monitoring app to check a certain message in interface /AIFT CUST_WS_I 00001
var oIntent = {
    target: {
        semanticObject: "AIFMessage",
        action: "startMessageMonitoring"
    },
    params: {
        "NS": "/AIFT",
        "IFNAME": "CUST_WS_I",
        "IFVER": "00001"
    }
};
oIntent.params.MSGGUID = "00505695007C1EDAA6E511728E81DCB1"; // replaced by a variable containing the MSGGUID in your case
var oCrossAppNav = sap.ushell.Container.getService("CrossApplicationNavigation");
if (oCrossAppNav) {
    oCrossAppNav.toExternal(oIntent);
}

Here is a sample code for navigating to a certain message’s detail in the Message Monitoring app from the backend:

* navigate to message monitoring app to check a certain message in interface /AIFT CUST_WS_I 00001
DATA:
lt_parameters  TYPE tihttpnvp,
ls_parameter   LIKE LINE OF lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'NS'.
ls_parameter-value = '/AIFT'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'IFNAME'.
ls_parameter-value = 'CUST_WS_I'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'IFVER'.
ls_parameter-value = '00001'.
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
ls_parameter-name = 'MSGGUID'.
ls_parameter-value = '00505695007C1EDAA6E511728E81DCB1'. " replaced by a variable containing the MSGGUID in your case
APPEND ls_parameter TO lt_parameters.
cl_lsapi_manager=>navigate_to_intent(
 object = 'AIFMessage'
 action = 'startMessageMonitoring'
 parameters = lt_parameters
 navigation_mode = 0 ).

Using these sample codes, you can try out for yourself how to navigate to the Message Monitoring app from another app. This greatly improves the way you use and experience SAP Application Interface Framework and its Message Monitoring capabilities.
