 Front-End Server: Activate ICF Services of SAP UI5 Application

 

In addition to the central services relevant for all SAP Fiori apps, you must also activate the services for the specific apps. This is because, for security reasons, all Internet Communication Framework (ICF) services are made available in an inactive state.

Note Note

For security reasons, we recommend that you only activate the services for the apps you want to use.
