OAuth 2.0 Client (New)

In this release, you get an OAuth 2.0 client for accessing service providers from an SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP.

The OAuth 2.0 client allows an ABAP program to access the service provider with restricted permissions on behalf of the end users. When using the OAuth 2.0 client, your data will always be secure, because the communication between the OAuth 2.0 client and the server is secured by an HTTPS connection. The end users can use services and resources offered by a service provider, such as SAP Cloud Platform, to edit or process their data.

The new OAuth 2.0 client supports a set of predefined service provider types, for example SAP Cloud Platform. It also supports other service providers such as Google Cloud Platform or Microsoft Azure.

The OAuth 2.0 client supports the following grant types:

  • Authorization code
  • SAML 2.0 bearer assertion

Please also make sure that you implement SAP Note 2043775 Information published on SAP site.
