SIC - SAP RFC Protocol

To integrate with SAP using RFC will I need to configure a data source on the SIC gateway or will I just need to add the appropriate DLL's to the referenced assemblies folder?

    I will be using the SAP connector from the solution exchange.

    There is no native data source provider in sic config utility for SAP. However you can create a dummy connection to store your SAP details and creds.

    There is an API you can use from the SIC function BR to retrieve them and use in your connection.

    I’d need to check the SAP connector and how it handles the connection but anyways, creds is something you may want to keep on gateway server side. You could also store in CAT and pass to the SIC function BR from the connector BR.

      Thanks for the response,

      All I would need to do then is load the rfc libraries / dll's into SIC assemblies folder?

       

      For the API you mentioned it is...

      APILibrary.GetSmartIntegrationConfigValue("creds")

        Hi,

        yes you need to follow instructions available in the SIC Guide. It shows you where to place the DLL and also the additional RFC libs.

        I refer to this API where connName is the name you have in the config utility.
