Over the years, for the SAP HANA Academy, SAP’s Partner Innovation Lab, and à titre personnel, I have written a little over 300 posts here for the SAP Community. Some articles only reached a few readers. Others attracted quite a few more. For your reading pleasure and convenience, here is a curated list of posts which somehow managed to pass the 10k-view milestone and, as sign of current interest, still tickle the counters each month. |
Hi Denys,
thank you for providing these videos and links, it really helps to get a bit of a deeper understanding on top of the learning journey for integration suite and structures some of the learning material in an easy to process way (Also these tidbits about the legacy of the integration suite are great!).
I have two questions, which maybe you can provide more insight into:
Do you happen to know if there is any additional practical learning examples planned by SAP (like the one from the learning journey with Slack)?
The example is great but I feel like it would be great to get some more hands-on before implementing this with clients (especially coming from a Basis background).
Secondly, do you know if there is any more holistic/overarching certification planned by SAP for BTP?
Right now I am trying to "manuveur" through the various certification and learning programs, but I haven't found much in terms of i.e. security & transporting in a BTP context.
Wish you all the best and
Br,
Toni
Hi Toni,
You are most welcome; good to hear you enjoyed the show.
Fully agree that more hands-on learning material would be very welcome. There are two groups (beginner) and three missions (intermediate) on the SAP Developer site which I can recommend.
Maybe Karunaharan V can comment if there is any new material under development?
Recently, a new learning journey was added to the SAP Learning site with a record of achievement
I would expect this to evolve into a certification (maybe even later this year).
Hello Toni Mangelmann and Denys van Kempen
Well, I can't answer for SAP BTP certifications. But for SAP Integration Suite - Yes, my team and I are working on few more tutorials that gives you hands-on experience with more capabilities/features of the product. We plan to have them published in Q3/Q4 2022.
Regards,
Karuna
Awesome. Thanks for the info Karunaharan V !
Thanks for the reply Karunaharan V, looking forward to getting to try out those new tutorials 😉
Br,
Toni

Hi Digent,
HTTP 400 concerns a bad request. The body mentions a missing scope (?) but also istio-envoy (?)
Is this consistent? I.e. when repeating all steps, you get the same result? Same when using other environments, configuration?
As mentioned in the video, for the exam, you are not expected to be an API Management expert.
Should you wish to have this issue resolved, consider posting the question to the forum for a wider reach (subscribers to the relevant tags are notified).

Hi Digant!
I faced same issue with Slack connector, this is caused by a missing scope, you can find the solution folowing the instructions provided on
learning.sap.com/learning-journey/developing-with-sap-integration-suite/creating-an-api-based-on-slack
go and check configuration details under section
h. Select the OAuth Scope field. Add: chat:write, into the first position.
Then you should re-authenticate your connector instance.
after following these steps I was able to fix HTTP 400 - Bad request response
I hope it helps!
regards
Daniel
