The service definition XML is displayed in your browser.

The browser's URL field displays the service root URI. It should look similar to the following:

http://<server>:<port>/sap/opu/odata/UI2/LAUNCHPAD/?$format=xml

Note If a system alias for your system has been maintained, but is not selected as default, you can either edit the configuration or extend the URL by adding ;o=<system_alias> after the service name. For example, for system ABC and client 123, the URL could be as follows:

http://<server>:<port>/sap/opu/odata/UI2/LAUNCHPAD;o=ABC_123/?$format=xml
