Preparation

Before you start with the configuration steps described in the following sections, check that your server URL and the user names are in place.

Server URL

Direct connection to SAP Jam in a system used as an ABAP SMI hub or in any back-end system not using the ABAP SMI hub option

You have the server URL that you received from SAP Jam Product Support during the licensing process. In several procedures in this section, this server URL is required. Use it whenever you are requested to enter:

<your server URL>

Example
https://jam12.sapjam.com
Indirect connection to SAP Jam using an ABAP SMI hub

For this configuration option, whenever you are requested to enter <your server URL>, enter the URL as follows:

https://<server and port of ABAP SMI hub system>/sap/bc/ui2/smi/rest_tunnel/<tunnel destination>

User Names

Note This step is not required for the configuration of the indirect connection to SAP Jam using an ABAP SMI hub.

In the standard delivery, the SAP Jam user name corresponds to the email address of the user as defined in the back end.

We assume that you have registered each user in SAP Jam with a unique email address, since the back-end user will be mapped to this email address in the back-end system to access SAP Jam.

To check whether the SAP Jam user names are in place in the user master record of your back-end system, proceed as follows:

Run transaction SU01.
The User Maintenance: Initial Screen appears.
In the User field, enter the user name.
On the Address tab, in the Communication group box, verify that a valid address is present in the E-Mail Address field.

Note The default implementation retrieves the data from the user master record. If you want to use a source other than the user master record, set up the user mapping by implementing BAdI CLB2_USER_MAPPING appropriately.
