3701173 - OAuth 2.0 support for SAP_COM_0087 communication scenario in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • Attempt to integrate third party systems with SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud system using SAP_COM_0087 communication scenario.
  • OAuth 2.0 authentication is required for integration but is not supported for inbound communication in SAP_COM_0087.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Attempt to integrate third party systems with SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud system using SAP_COM_0087 communication scenario.
  2. Navigate to the communication arrangement for SAP_COM_0087.
  3. Check the inbound communication settings.

Cause

In general, OAuth 2.0 for SAP_COM_0087 is not supported for inbound communications.

Resolution

1. About OAuth 2.0 authentication support for SAP_COM_0087, OAuth 2.0 is generally not supported for inbound communication user authentication. However, the availability of OAuth 2.0 support can vary depending on the specific API. For example, see the Cost Center API on Business Accelerator Hub -> Authentication Methods. Some of the APIs that support OAuth 2.0 are offered via other communication scenarios. It is recommended to review the Business Accelerator HUB for detailed information.

2. Concerning alternative communication scenarios offering the same OData services with OAuth 2.0 support, as mentioned earlier, OAuth 2.0 support is API-specific. Certain APIs that support OAuth 2.0 may be available through other communication scenarios. Again, the Business Accelerator Hub is the best resource to explore these options further.

3. As for official SAP recommendation for integrating third‑party systems, SAP provides details under the “Integrations” section of the Business Accelerator Hub. As integration requirements can differ across products, the standard approach is to raise a new Customer Influence request through the Customer Influence website.
Note that SAP_COM_0087 is specifically designed for integrating SAP Analytics Cloud with S/4HANA Public Cloud. Documentations for this integration can be found in this Help Portal: Integrating SAP Analytics Cloud with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
