Create a Destination in SAP BTP Cockpit

To enable your SAP Build Apps app to use the OData endpoints of your CAP application, you need a destination in the subaccount where you develop the application and also in the subaccount where you deploy the application.

1. In the SAP BTP cockpit, navigate to your subaccount.

2. In the left-side subaccount menu, navigate to Connectivity → Destinations.

   

3. Choose New Destination to create a new destination or you can choose Import Destination to import the sample destination file DWCMISSION_FARMTANKS.

4. Configure the Destination by entering or adjusting the following values:

• Name: a meaningful name, for example DWCMISSION_FARMTANKS
• Type: HTTP
• Description: for example OData Endpoints to Farm Tank entities
• URL: the application route (obtained when deploying the CAP application) followed by /odata/v4/farm-tank
• ProxyType: Internet
• Authentication: BasicAuthentication
• User: field.technician@tester.sap.com
• Password: the password you configured for your OData endpoint

5. Add the following Additional Properties by choosing New Property. If you have imported the sample destination file, the following properties are automatically added:

• Name: AppgyverEnabled - value: true
• Name: HTML5.DynamicDestination - value: true
• Name: WebIDEUsage - value: odata_gen

6. Select the Use default JDK truststore checkbox.
